University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - (BTT) While some institutions consider education to be an almost spiritual experience, few take it as literally as the University of Pittsburgh. The 42-story Cathedral of Learning, designed by architect Charles Z. Klauder and dedicated in 1937, was not only planned to be the tallest building in Pittsburgh when it broke ground, but remains to this day the tallest educational building in the entire Western hemisphere. Before you head off for class, make sure you write down the room number carefully - with over 2,000 rooms inside, it could take the whole semester finally find your way.
