I have been in older, larger, more ornate, and far more famous cathedrals before, but I think the Suzzallo Library on the University of Washington’s campus is my favorite. Why? I’m not sure. The lack of tourists? The books instead of religious symbols? I don’t know. The place just felt very magical to me. I felt like rapping people on the back of the head and saying, “How can you study here? How can you keep your eyes on your book and not just look around this glorious space instead?”.
