For two years I lived in a really ugly Robert Moses era tower-in-the-park highrise that was one of three built by my university back in the late 50s. A professor told me that somewhere in the basement of the library are the original plans to those buildings, designed by none other than Mies. But, for whatever reasons, the school dismissed him and his designs. So yes, I go to an architecture school that sacked Mies van der Rohe.
