Description

"Universities are spaces for contemplation but also sociability and simply living. The University places materiality at the center of the institution's 900-year history, tracing connections between the campus's shifting physical realities--straw and stone, flesh and blood, concrete and iron--and the evolving cultural meanings of higher learning"--Provided by publisher.
