DARTMOUTH — Student guides, giving tours of the campus of the University of Massachusetts here, used to inform visitors that the architect was a Satanist.
UMass Dartmouth is that kind of architecture. Theatrical, a little weird, a little grim. If you once saw it, you maybe loved it, you maybe hated it, but you probably didn’t forget it.
