I would defend ISU's campus to anyone...but #5 in the world seems a tad overdone!
No Oxford? Cambridge? Princeton?
Or put another way...ISU has the plaque by Curtiss that central campus is an American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) Medallion site...one of three campus designated as such. The other central campuses were Yale and UVA....which also did not make the list.

...so the key is this was basically a buzzfeed poll. And ISU always wins poll contests!!
