Over the years I've had the opportunity to visit many of the nation's colleges and universities. For most of them, the reason for visiting was to see one or more National Historic Landmarks. At a few of them I actually obtained a degree or attended some post-graduate classes. In the tables below, the date shown is the first time I went, and an asterisk indicates that I visited multiple times.
