This was my experience at caltech, too. The open campus was really fun to be on with the tourists and the old people, and the buildings were like a science museum.

My funniest memory of this was taking a picture with a Chinese tourist while standing next to my photo on a bulletin board.

I agree. Thinking back now, it was tough to appreciate just how unique, bizarre, and special the experience was of studying everyday at a place people travel across the world to take pictures at. Strange.

Those Korean “Dream Tours” busses jamming up the infinite as I ran to classes were a great memory in retrospect, but the bane of my mornings as I hoofed it to lectures.
