West Campus at UT in Austin is a marvel, a wonder, a joyous scream, a sight to see, a first drink, a story to tell, a regret, a dream. West Campus is the wealthy and white, beer and cups and glass and drunken girls, cracked sidewalks and overgrown trees and dog poop, towering Greek houses of shining brick, sketchy alleys, bars and corner stores, endless apartment buildings, construction.
