Good idea or bad idea?

Is this a veiled "Why Hogwarts?"

Depends on the execution (as with most things) but feel free to PM it to me if you're not posting it publicly. I'm an architect, so I might be able to help you sort out technical jargon if you're going that route.

Depends what you plan to say. If its you are going here because if the reading room...I wouldn't. That's a good sentence in a Why Mich but not an entire page.

Every time I start to write about how Michigan places grads in my region, the alumni network, certain clinics, etc., it just feels so forced and boring. I started to write up a little phenomenological description of the architecture just to try and get the juices flowing, and it feels more genuine somehow.

I don't want to go to Michigan because it's pretty. I want to go because I want a good job. But somehow the architecture is more pleasant to write about.

Maybe I'll PM it to a couple of you. It's just a sketch at this point, but you can see if I'm way off course.
