The first time in almost two decades. Wow. Reminds me of Dr Evil saying "one...mILLION dollars!" Most gilded domes last many decades longer than that.
And "...arguably the world’s most recognized college landmark"? That would take a lot of arguing! I'd never heard of this dome nor seen a photo, and there are so many "notre dame" colleges that I'd only heard of this one from my gf who got her PhD from Northwestern nearby.
For $60,000 a year in tuition, they should gold-plate everything.
