Fall may be the number one season to showcase the natural beauty of a college campus. The visibility of the change in season was the qualifying factor for the chosen colleges.
Kevin Shull, the article's author, said this about the list: "It is important to consider many factors, including the natural features of the campus, when searching for the right school. While the quality of education is the most obvious factor, finding an environment that is conducive to a high degree of happiness can greatly impact a student's quality of work and overall college experience. Colleges spend millions on student centers with amenities designed to make students comfortable, but beautiful scenery isn't something you can buy."
