<h4>A Parthenon for the Plains</h4>
<p class="sseriftext11">Following the university's founding in 1869, a campus was laid out on four city blocks and its first building, University Hall, was constructed. Built of wood and sun-dried bricks in what its builders termed the "Franco-Italian Style," University Hall was an impressive structure to young people visiting the capital city. One student, born and reared in a sod house, likened it to the Parthenon. This beacon of learning also dazzled young pioneer children, who would mount huge ash heaps in the back of University Hall to view skeletons in the state's first museum.</p>
<p class="sseriftext11">Attempts to impose a more civilized appearance on the campus landscape often were turned back by the harsh conditions of the prairie. Hundreds of trees were planted, only to perish, and the first flower beds were cut down numerous times by marauding hordes of locusts.</p>
<p class="sseriftext11">Even University Hall paid nature's toll. By the time the university erected its second building in 1886, old U Hall was crumbling back into the prairie.</p>
<p class="sseriftext11">But the spirit of higher education prevailed in great leaders like Chancellor James Canfield. In the early 1890s, during construction of the new library, Canfield stood over its builders, personally holding contractors to specifications. The completion of this building marked a new era for the university - its collection of books and artworks were declarations of learned civilization in a raw land.</p>
<p class="sseriftext11">Today the old library appropriately serves the College of Architecture. Its turrets, winding staircase, and owls of wisdom are reminders of the great aspirations of its builders.</p>
<h4>The Campus Expands</h4>
<p class="sseriftext11">As the university's mission grew, so did its size. A farm campus was established east of Lincoln in 1873. Separated from the city by an unbroken stretch of prairie, it was regarded by students to be a great distance from the main city campus. By 1904 the farm campus went beyond its own boundaries to establish an experimental station at North Platte, the first of many research centers that would serve the state in later years. NU made its first operational tie with the city of Omaha when that city's then-ailing Medical College merged with the university in 1902.</p>
<h4>A New Century</h4>
<p class="sseriftext11">The first decade of the 20th century saw enrollment at NU increase by a third, and by 1909 nearly 4,000 students were in attendance. That same year the university was admitted as the 18th member of the Association of American Universities.</p>
<p class="sseriftext11">The university began to outgrow its original four-block city campus, and in 1906 constructed a student activity center, known as the Temple Building. Matching funds for the construction of this building were given by petroleum magnate John D. Rockefeller, a friend of Chancellor E. Benjamin Andrews. The donation created an uproar among such Nebraska populists as William Jennings Bryan, who considered Rockefeller's oil money to be tainted.</p>
<p class="sseriftext11">A number of buildings from those early days survive today as reminders of this era, including Brace Laboratory, Richards Hall, and the first law college building.</p>

<p>Growth during the war years occurred amid fierce debate in the legislature over a proposal to consolidate both campuses on the farm campus. Put to the vote of the people in 1915, the proposal was defeated, and work was begun anew for expansion on both campuses.</p>

<p>The orderly development of the farm campus, under the scrutiny of Chancellor Andrews, included a number of large, buff-brick buildings arranged around a central mall. Despite this classical arrangement, the campus retained the feel of the countryside, with its barns, livestock and test fields.</p>
<p>City campus, on the other hand, developed in a variety of styles, experiencing rapid growth in the postwar years of the 1920s. This period brought such monumental structures as Social Sciences Hall, now home to the College of Business Administration, and Morrill Hall, also known as the University of Nebraska State Museum. Millions of visitors have passed through its massive colonnades to view astonishing displays of prehistory, including the remarkable exhibition known as Elephant Hall. The 1920s also saw the continued rise of athletic excellence at the University of Nebraska with the construction of two large-scale sports complexes&mdash;Memorial Stadium and the Nebraska Coliseum.</p>

<p>In the late 1950s NU&rsquo;s enrollment soared with its skyline, climbing from 8,000 students in 1959 to nearly 20,000 just 10 years later. Buildings for laboratories, classrooms and student housing dwarfed earlier structures.</p>
<p>The massive growth in the 1960s transformed the university into the institution it is today. The farm campus outgrew its name and became East Campus. Surrounded by busy city streets, East Campus has retained much of the natural beauty and open spaces that are its heritage, including the lush Maxwell Arboretum. It has diversified in mission, today serving as home to the colleges of Law and Dentistry, the Barkley Memorial Center for Hearing and Speech Disorders, the Division of Continuing Studies and the Nebraska Educational Television Network.</p>

<div class="bp2-wdn-col-one-half">
<p>In 1969 the &ldquo;University of Nebraska,&rdquo; a phrase which had theretofore described the university chartered in 1869 and located in Lincoln, was redefined as an umbrella organization for three campuses. To its name the former University of Nebraska appended the name of its host city to become the University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln, joining the University of Nebraska at Omaha (the former Metropolitan University of Omaha), and the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Twenty-two years later yet another institution was added to the system, the University of Nebraska at Kearney (formerly Kearney State College).</p>

<p>The 1990s saw the start of another building boom on campus, with the construction of such large scale facilities as the Beadle Center for Biomaterials Research, the Kauffman Center residential learning community, a new building for Teachers College, and major expansions of Memorial Stadium and the Nebraska Union. In the new millennium, several notable new buildings have opened, including the Quilt Study Center and the Ken Morrison Life Sciences Research Center on East Campus, as well as new apartment-style residence halls on City Campus.</p>
<p>The University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln begins the 21<sup>st</sup> century with a mission deeply rooted in its status as a land grant university. It is of national and international influence, with students from every state and more than 100 nations. It is a research university at the forefront of discovery in the humanities and sciences. It is as it has always been, a place of pioneer spirit and restlessness, forever seeking the horizon.</p>

<h3 class="sec_main" style="margin-bottom: 4px;">For <span style="color:#c60202;">143 Years</span>, a Leader in Higher Education</h3>
<p>The University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln, chartered in 1869, is
an educational institution of international stature. UNL is
listed by the Carnegie Foundation within the "Research Universities (very high
research activity)" category. UNL is a land-grant university and a member of the
Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU).
The university is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of
the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
<span style="color:#c60202;font-weight:bold;">
UNL celebrated the 143rd anniversary of its founding on Feb. 15,
2012.

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 class="sec_main" style="margin-bottom: 4px;">A Strong Foundation</h3>
<p>Always a place of high ambition, this was one of the first institutions
west of the Mississippi River to award doctoral degrees &mdash; the
first was granted, in physics, in 1896. The University of Nebraska
established the world's first undergraduate psychology laboratory.
The discipline of ecology was born here, and the campuses reflect
that tradition, being recognized as botanical gardens and arboreta.
An early institutional interest in literature and the arts provided
the foundations for today's Prairie Schooner literary magazine, for
the University of Nebraska Press, and for the Sheldon Museum of Art,
which houses one of the world's most significant collections of 20th
century American art.</p>
<p>Today, the University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln is one of the nation's
leading teaching institutions, and a research leader with a wide
array of grant-funded projects aimed at broadening knowledge in the
sciences and humanities.</p>

<p>
In Fall 2012, for the ninth-straight year, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln was among the top 50 public universities listed in <a href="http://newsroom.unl.edu/releases/2012/09/12/UNL+still+among+nation%27s+best+in+U.S.+News+ranking" title="read the full news release">U.S. News and World Report's annual evaluation of America's Best Colleges</a>. UNL is ranked near the top third of all national universities both public and private, (tied with four others at 101st). For the second year in a row, UNL is featured among schools that focus on student success through enriched offerings. The UCARE program, Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experiences, is included among the 33 best university programs in undergraduate research and creative projects. UNL is also listed in the ranking report among "A-Plus Schools for B Students." </p>
<h3 class="sec_main" style="margin-bottom: 4px;">Excellence in Undergraduate
Education</h3>
<p>The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is a research-extensive institution
with an extraordinary focus on Undergraduate Education. Our undergraduates
learn from faculty who create new knowledge, who are leading scientists
and scholars, and who care about students&#8217; success. Several
signature programs exemplify this commitment to undergraduate success.
The Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experiences Program
(UCARE) connects faculty and students who work collaboratively on
independent study projects that advance new knowledge. The Jeffrey
S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Management develops leaders
for this era of expanding information technology and business globalization.
Students are selected for this innovative program based on high academic
achievement, outstanding leadership experience, demonstrated interest
in computer science and business, and career goals. The program provides
an education balanced in technology and management while developing
professional skills in leadership, communications and collaboration.
The Heuermann Lectures focus on providing security – and here security means enough to sustain the world – in the areas of food, natural resources, and renewable energy for people, as well as on securing the sustainability of rural communities where the vital work of producing food and renewable energy occurs. The University Honors Program hosts Honors Forum talks
to complement the 20-year-old E.N. Thompson Forum on World Issues. </p>

<h3 class="sec_main" style="margin-bottom: 4px;">Research and Economic Development</h3>
<p>The University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln is the intellectual center for the state of Nebraska, providing leadership in education and research. The citizens of Nebraska benefit from the knowledge and research generated by our faculty and students. This research-based service to our state is a feature that distinguishes UNL as a land-grant university.</p>
<p>
UNL's research enterprise has grown substantially during this decade. Total funding for research increased by 146 percent since 2000. In the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009, research funding totaled $122.5 million, which includes all external funds awarded for university research projects. Funding increased about 13 percent from $108.3 million a year earlier, the largest ever year-to-year research funding growth.</p>
<p>
Nearly $84 million of UNL's external research funding in fiscal year 2009 came from federal sources, including the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Department of Energy, Department of Education, National Endowment for the Humanities, Department of Agriculture and other agencies. UNL's federal funding for research grew nearly 16 percent from $72.3 million in 2008. Non-federal funds came from foundations, industry, associations and state agencies.</p>
<p>
UNL researchers are addressing emerging challenges facing our state and nation. For example, in 2009 the university launched an ambitious undertaking, the Global Water for Food Institute. This research institute will meet a critical need for an organization to address the challenges and issues surrounding the use of water for agriculture. It will be dedicated to helping the world efficiently use its water resources to ensure the food supply for current and future generations.</p>
<p>
Examples of major research grants that contributed to the funding increase during fiscal 2009 include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>$9.3 million from the National Science Foundation for NebraskaMATH, a statewide program to improve mathematics achievement for students. </li>
<li>$8.1 million from NSF for continued support of UNL's Materials Research Science and Engineering Center and its nanotechnology research.</li>
<li>$8.7 million from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Children's Bureau to establish the Midwest Child Welfare Technical Assistance Implementation Center. </li>
<li>$3.8 million from NSF to establish an ADVANCE program at UNL to help recruit, promote and retain female faculty in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. </li>
<li>$2.5 million from NSF to make available nationwide a robotics and GPS/GIS science education curriculum developed by Nebraska 4-H. </li>
<li>$300,000 from the National Endowment for the Humanities to edit, annotate and make available online the Civil War writings of Walt Whitman.</li>

<h2 class="wdn-brand-caps clear-top">Excellence in Undergraduate Education</h2>
<p>The University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln is a research-extensive institution with an extraordinary focus on undergraduate education. Our undergraduates learn from faculty who create new knowledge, are leading scientists and scholars and care about students&rsquo; success. Several signature programs exemplify this commitment to undergraduate success.</p>
<div class="wdn-grid-set">
<div class="bp2-wdn-col-one-half">
<p class="small">The <a href="http://www.unl.edu/ucare/">Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experiences program</a> connects faculty and students to work collaboratively on independent study projects that advance new knowledge.</p>
<p class="small">The <a href="http://raikes.unl.edu/">Jeffrey S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Management</a> develops leaders for this era of expanding information technology and business globalization. Students are selected for this innovative program based on high academic achievement, outstanding leadership experience, demonstrated interest in computer science and business and their career goals. The program provides an education balanced in technology and management while developing professional skills in leadership, communications and collaboration.</p>
</div>
<div class="bp2-wdn-col-one-half">
<p class="small">Over the past two decades, the <a href="http://enthompson.unl.edu/">E.N. Thompson Forum on World Issues</a> has established itself as one of the most distinguished speakers series in higher education. Its mission is to bring a diversity of viewpoints on international and public policy issues to the university and the residents of the state to promote understanding and encourage debate.</p>
<p class="small">The <a href="http://heuermannlectures.unl.edu/">Heuermann Lectures</a>, another high-profile series at UNL, focuses on the sustainability of food, natural resources, renewable energy and rural communities for all people.</p>

<div class="wdn-col">
<p>The University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln is the intellectual center for the state of Nebraska, providing leadership in education and research. The citizens of Nebraska benefit from the knowledge and research generated by our faculty and students. This research-based service to our state is a feature that distinguishes UNL as a land-grant university.</p>
</div>
<div class="wdn-col">
<p>UNL&rsquo;s research expenditures totaled more than $266 million in 2013, the most recent fiscal year for which expenditure information is available. This total included nearly $98 million in federal research expenditures. The National Science Foundation accounted for 30 percent of UNL&rsquo;s federal research expenditures, followed by 17 percent from the Department of Health and Human Services, including the National Institutes of Health, and 13 percent from the Department of Defense. UNL&rsquo;s goal is to achieve $300 million in total research expenditures by 2018, with at least half coming from federal agencies.</p>

<p>The University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln is located in an up-and-coming and safe city of over 300,000 people. Lincoln has many of the cultural and entertainment benefits of a much larger city, with the feel of a friendly Midwestern community.</p>

<p class="small">Lincoln voted for bigger concerts and events, and now the Pinnacle Bank Arena is here. Around it, the Historic Haymarket has expanded into a buzzing entertainment district. Lincoln residents enjoy more restaurants, more options in downtown nightlife and more ways to enjoy time with friends. What remains the same is the short walk downtown from UNL&rsquo;s City Campus.</p>

<div class="about-unl-parks">
<h3 class="wdn-alt-header">Beautiful Parks</h3>

<p>The University of Nebraska-Lincoln, chartered by the Legislature in 1869, is that part of the University of Nebraska system which serves as both the land-grant and the comprehensive public University for the State of Nebraska. Those responsible for its origins recognized the value of combining the breadth of a comprehensive University with the professional and outreach orientation of the land-grant University, thus establishing a campus which has evolved to become the flagship campus of the University of Nebraska. UNL works cooperatively with the other three campuses and Central Administration to provide for its student body and all Nebraskans the widest array of disciplines, areas of expertise, and specialized facilities of any institution within the state.</p>
<p>
Through its three primary missions of teaching, research, and service, UNL is the state's primary intellectual center providing leadership throughout the state through quality education and the generation of new knowledge. UNL's graduates and its faculty and staff are major contributors to the economic and cultural development of the state. UNL attracts a high percentage of the most academically talented Nebraskans and the graduates of the University form a significant portion of the business, cultural, and professional resources of the State. The quality of primary, secondary, and other post-secondary educational programs in the state depends in part on the resources of UNL for curricular development, teacher training, professional advancement, and enrichment activities involving the University's faculty, museums, galleries, libraries, and other facilities. UNL provides for the people of the state unique opportunities to fulfill their highest ambitions and aspirations thereby helping the state retain its most talented youth, attract talented young people from elsewhere, and address the educational needs of the non-traditional learner.</p>
<p>
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln has been recognized by the Legislature as the primary research and doctoral degree granting institution in the state for fields outside the health professions. Through its service and outreach efforts, the University extends its educational responsibilities directly to the people of Nebraska on a statewide basis. Many of UNL's teaching, research, and service activities have an international dimension in order to provide its students and the state a significant global perspective.</p>
<h3 class="sec_header">The Missions of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln </h3>
<p>The role of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln as the primary intellectual and cultural resource for the State is fulfilled through the three missions of the University: teaching, research, and service. UNL pursues its missions through the Colleges of Architecture, Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Education and Human Sciences, Engineering, Hixon Lied College of Fine and Performing Arts, Journalism and Mass Communications, Law, the University-wide Graduate College, and the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources which includes the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, the Agricultural Research Division, the Cooperative Extension Division, and the Conservation and Survey Division. Special units with distinct missions include the University Libraries, Extended Education and Outreach, International Affairs, the Lied Center for Performing Arts, the Bureau of Business Research, Nebraska Educational Telecommunications, the Sheldon Museum of Art and Sculpture Garden, the University of Nebraska State Museum, the University of Nebraska Press, the Water Center, the Nebraska Forest Service, the Nebraska State-wide Arboretum, and Intercollegiate Athletics.</p>
<p>
To capitalize on the breadth of programs and the multidisciplinary resources available at UNL, a number of Centers exist to marshal faculty from a variety of disciplines to focus teaching and research on specific societal issues and to provide technical assistance for business and industry in order to enhance their ability to compete in world markets. Additionally, interdisciplinary programs promote integration of new perspectives and insights into the instructional research and service activities.</p>
<p>
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln promotes respect for and understanding of cultural diversity in all aspects of society. It strives for a culturally diverse student body, faculty, and staff reflecting the multicultural nature of Nebraska and the nation. UNL brings international and multicultural dimensions to its programs through the involvement of its faculty in international activities, a student body that includes students from throughout the world, exchange agreements with other universities abroad involving both students and faculty, and the incorporation of international components in a variety of courses and curricula.</p>
<p>
Teaching, research, and service take on a distinctive character at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln because of its status as a comprehensive land-grant university. These traits permit opportunities for the integration of multiple disciplines providing students more complete and sophisticated programs of study. Its land-grant tradition ensures a commitment to the special character of the State and its people.</p>
<p>
The faculty is responsible for the curricular content of the various programs and pursues new knowledge and truths within a structure that assures academic freedom in its intellectual endeavors. The curricula are designed to foster critical thinking, the re-examination of accepted truths, a respect for different perspectives including an appreciation of the multiethnic character of the nation, and a curiosity that leads to life-long learning. Additionally, an environment exists whereby students can develop aesthetic values and human relationships including tolerance for differing viewpoints.</p>

<p>Basic and applied research and creative activity represent a major component of UNL&rsquo;s mission, a component that is recognized in Nebraska legislative statutes, and in its status as a land-grant university. The quest for new knowledge is an essential part of a research university; it helps define and attract the type of faculty necessary to provide a university education; it distinguishes the quality of the undergraduate students&rsquo; classroom experience; and it is the necessary component of graduate instruction.</p>

<div class="bp2-wdn-col-one-half">
<p>As part of its research mission, UNL is dedicated to the pursuit of an active research agenda producing both direct and indirect benefits to the State. The special importance of agriculture, environment, and natural resources is addressed in its research priorities. In addition, UNL conducts a high level of research and creative activities that address in specific ways the issues and problems that confront Nebraska. Through their research and creative activities, faculty at UNL interact with colleagues around the world and are part of the network of knowledge and information that so influences our society. As a consequence, the University serves as the gateway through which Nebraska participates in and shares the gains from technological and cultural developments.</p>

<p>The land-grant tradition creates for the University of Nebraska&ndash;Lincoln a special state-wide responsibility to serve the needs of Nebraska and its citizens. In addition, many of its service aspects extend to regional, national, and international clientele. Special units such as Extended Education and Outreach and the Cooperative Extension Division have specific responsibilities to bring the teaching and research resources of the University to a wider clientele. Through Cooperative Extension&rsquo;s partnership with federal, state, and county agencies, UNL has an outreach program in each county in the state. Moreover, all units of the University have a service and outreach mission.</p>
</div>
<div class="bp2-wdn-col-one-half">
<p>To help accomplish this mission, UNL delivers educational services through diverse ways including telecommunications methods and as a participant in the development of regional educational centers especially in those areas where it has state-wide responsibilities. The University recognizes its obligation to extend the resources of the University beyond the campus and throughout the State. Serving the needs of Nebraska requires more than responding to the felt needs of the time. UNL must be visionary in its planning and must help the citizens of the state prepare for the future as well as deal with the present.</p>
