Photography – Buildings & Architecture: Universities

Published by

Hi everyone, it’s Robbie Cheadle here with you today with my May post in the Buildings & Architecture Photography section on LatinosUSA – English Edition. For this post, I am focusing on Universities.

Universities by Robbie Cheadle

I’m sharing two lots of university photographs today. The first set is of two Universities I passed while wandering around Paris in April. The first is Universite de Paris Institut d’Art et d’Archeologie. The second is Sorbonne Universite – Observatoire des Sciences de l’Universe.

The second set of photographs are of the Great Hall at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg where my older son, Gregory, is studying a Masters in Topological Mathematics.

What Andrew says about these photographs:

I graduated from St. Mary’s College of Maryland in 2012, a campus that immediately captivated me (not to mention it was on the St. Mary’s River). As a double major in History and English, most of my history classes were held in Kent Hall, and most of my English classes were held in Montgomery Hall, known on campus as Monty. I had a few classes in a basement classroom in Calvert Hall, which is where I lived in a single room during my senior year (my room’s window can be seen on the upper balcony at its right). The Garden of Remembrance is between Kent and Calvert, and it is one of the Seven Wonders of St. Mary’s. I often walked in the church’s graveyard, just across from Calvert, and looked out at the river from there. The Rectory is another building on campus.

    Those are all great photos. I have photos of ships and submarines somewhere. I think I mentioned this already but I once took a class (graduate level class) on Topological Mathematics, or Topology. It was a very abstract and a very tough class. Afterwards I was saying, well I am not doing that again. That was too difficult. I am so impressed that Gregory is focusing on such a challenging topic. It is certainly a topic for the very brightest.

    Yes Topology is becoming increasingly important both in Mathematics and in Physics and Cosmology.

    I’m a big fan of older university architecture. Those classical styles tend to add some gravitas to places of higher learning even though the inside may not always be best suited to new technological subjects. Nice selection, Robbie, shared on Twitter.

    Best wishes, Pete.

      I agree, Pete. Lack of discipline is one of the biggest challenges facing societies currently.
