A more obvious photo of the same city (the campus within shot is NOT the one I'm asking for, but it should give a good clue as to the city)

Ok, that is very clearly UC - Boulder. The Flatirons were a dead giveaway.

I remeber searching up UC - Boulder for college and someone mentioned to me Naropa University, founded by Tibetan Buddhist.

I have to admit I had to Google Earth Boulder because I did forget the name of the school but remembered it was just north of UC Boulder's campus.

Well then Juelz has the prize of posting a new picture!

EDIT: That Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics looks pretty cool...

Woo, thanks Juelz. Sorry guys, I have some friends that go to Naropa and thought it was a little more well-known. I visited the campus last year, it has a bit of a farm atmosphere. The founder pictured is Chögyam Trungpa, who lived in Halifax until his death in 1987.

I had not heard of the founder or the school. I guess it's good to learn something.

Well, since I'm pretty sure I'm correct, I'll go ahead and post another pic to keep this moving.

It's Central Michigan University. I recognize the large cross-shaped dorm complex from a visit there as a kid.

I know this one because it's my alma mater, but I'll let others keep guessing.

....... It's not in Utah.
