A scenic view of a university or college campus with historic buildings surrounding a large, circular reflecting pool. The architecture is characterized by brick structures with pointed roofs, and there are several trees and shrubs adding greenery. Some people are walking on the pathways, while others are sitting on benches near the pool. The sky is clear with a few clouds, and the setting is peaceful and serene.
