1953-54 school year, are located within a 220-acre area. They are in a setting of
colorful trees, shrubbery, flowers, and lawns. A tree-lined amphitheater accommodates
commencements, convocations, and other large assemblages. A memorial court
and fountain and a free speech area, centrally located, contribute both to the
