This presentation explores the 200-year history of ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ as revealed in the stories behind the buildings and landscapes of our campuses. Who were the decision makers, the architects and planners? What were their links to the university and to the broader community? How are our buildings and campuses addressing the needs of a continually evolving institution? The presentation draws from the university’s own collections and archives to answer some of these questions.Ìý
