Purdue University's campus features many buildings designed with classical Greco-Roman architectural styles, including entryways inspired by Grecian temples, decorative tiles depicting chemistry symbols in labs, and fountains resembling those from Rome. The Frederick Hall of Administration most closely resembles the Parthenon with striking similarities to the famous Greek structure.
