I quoted the CU own reluctanctly because the campus is rapidly extending. secondly, the farm was not included as it was not included for landmark too. Anyway in the next five years CU might be over a 1000 acres because there are plans to extend the medical school, law school, business school and technology hub into canaancity(i guess as a second campus)
But then the best universities in the world rarely have landmass above 500 acres. e.g Caltech, Lancaster etc.

Hello people, I need your help. I have an assignment to write at least, 100 reasons why Nigeria is better than United States of America. Although, based on what I know, I have been able to come up with some, but considering the fact that I have not been to America, there are certain comparison that I can't make to determine which one is better. I am therefore compelled to seek your input. I know nairaland is full of intelligent people from all across the country and the world. Your exposure, work and access to certain information may be useful here. Kindly help state some of the ways you think Nigeria is better than US. Thanks
