    This is a beautiful church. The architecture is magnificent. I can just imagine that the campus is gorgeous.

    It Is a beautiful building. I also wonder what it is today. What is the green roof made of? Copper?

    I hope the buildings will be preserved even if the college has closed. I wonder if the bells are rung regularly.

    I too wonder if preservation is mind, or if this amazing building will succumb to 'progress' ... YAM xx

    That's a beautiful building. I love the look of older architecture. Since it closed I hope they find another use for the building. It would be sad to see it fall into disrepair

    I think I've been through Rensselaer. I remember when the college closed. It was sad to me because there was so much history surrounding it. One of the huge problems I have with the Catholic Church and how they spend vast amounts of money but that is a rant I will not start here.

    I think the campus is being used again. The church is beautiful.

    I think this is a Catholic college. I love the green top of the building, especially the one with the clock. : )

    It did look like a college building with the unusual spires. I hope everything stays standing.

    Gorgeous architecture found in these buildings! I hope that the buildings will be repurposed and preserved since the college's closing.
