The article noted Brittain's architectural beauty and historical details.
The building was a joint effort of many of Tech's departments: the architecture department designed the building, the ceramics department manufactured the tile for the floor of the tower, the mechanical engineering department supplied the wrought iron for the light fixtures in the main hall, and the textile department made tapestries for the walls.
The article also says one of the dining halls gives them a feeling of being at the Great Hall at Hogwarts, and we're pretty sure that we know which one they are talking about.
Brittain was built in 1928, but has been restored or updated four times so far in its history.
