Hmmm the blooms look alot like a burkwood viburnum like Lucy68 suggested, but the leaves were more waxy like the Raphiolepis you mentioned. They were newly-installed on the site so they may have been a bit off-kilter in their bloom cycle.

Other parts of campus have used hawthorns like Raphiolepis indica in their landscaping, so I'm thinking a hawthorn of some kind. If a plant list is ever posted for the project, I'll check it out to maybe find exact cultivar
