College campuses are designed at human-scale – cities can be too
For those saying that the density of college campuses simply isn't suitable when many different types of lifestyle converge, I urge you to look at Japan or Europe for an example of density working at scale.Density doesn't mean everyone is forced to live in a studio apartment either.  I live in Tokyo in a 3-story house paying less in rent than I ever did in Atlanta, Seattle, or Ann Arbor.  The biggest difference is the expansive train systems, allowing for clusters of shops and restaurants that are accessible without a car.  And not a parking lot in sight (good riddance)!
