All in all, I can definitely see why Elon has the prettiest campus.

You hit it on the nail my friend! Elon University has the benefit of expanding their campus over the past 10 years....and having the land to do it.
NC State, which is a terrific state school, is really quite unattractive. There is not a central 'court yard' which would define the school nicely.
