حقائق سريعة: Roaming through the campus, you’ll notice the telescope on the roof of the Glucksman Library, a nod to the university's strong focus on astronomy and science. The campus covers over 161 acres, blending Gothic revival architecture with lush green spaces that invite both study and relaxation.
