Description of Memorial:
We were visiting this campus as we do each time we are in this area and it is a very large area to wander. Each time we discover different things that we've missed before, this was one of them. The campus includes many acres of buildings with rolling hills, sculptures and outdoor artwork throughout the campus.
Visiting this campus is definitely like a stroll in the park and there are always activities going on here. The public is encouraged to visit and be a part of it since this university makes up such a huge part of the downtown area of this college town.
