Map the Campus III

Time for another Map that Campus.

I provide the aerial photo and a hint, you tell me the mystery Campus.

The first two mystery Campus were solved rather rapidly (and I suspect that this one will be as well). So here goes:

Alpha, beta
Yea, yea, yea
But a cannon
They took away

If you know the answer due to insider information, please wait a while before posting, thanks.

It's probably Caltech. I remember reading about how MIT stole their famed cannon as part of the ongoing rivalry between the schools.

How about you don't give away the fact that someone has answered the question correctly? You could give people a couple of days then anounce the answer.

'Tis indeed the lodge of the mighty beavers.

If you look closely you can see the aura that surrounds the place. Truly, a haven for the intellectual elite.

It's nice that you picked a chemist as the clue. Good for you.

OK as Acme suggests I will only post an answer 24hrs after the post. (but we got so many right answers that it's hard not to acknowledge it!)

And BTM, I knew you'd like this one. Also I thought that the first part of the hint was the giveaway, but I guess that the cannon story is well known.

It also appears that I'll have to make this a Friday ritual.
