Private campus with no walkthrough and a grouchy security guard across from a botanic gardens, nice

Update: still a great, beautiful campus... I hate the fact that I did apply for this school and specifically this campus, but some of the majors are on another campus. Plus the major that I wanted to take isn't taught at that campus. It's at another campus in a different borough. And night classes? Really? in a different borough? In person?...online is an excellent choice, but in person? No. Some people have limited transportation, especially buses in my area that don't run after 7 pm. I love this school but I can't.

Security guard acted like I was crazy to ask to go for a walk on campus—this is apparently the first time anyone has ever wanted to walk on their campus, and it’s unimaginable to him. “Yeah no, not today.” I’ve been to countless universities, public and private, and never been told no you can’t come in. Inhospitable and out of touch. Clearly not interested in being part of their community. As others mention, there is nothing to warn that visitors aren’t allowed so I’m not sure why they are shocked when someone asks.
