These three units, each with a distinguished history of scholarship and achievement, were brought together in 1972 under the revived name Centers in the College of Arts and of Western Reserve College. The college took its present form in 1992, when undergraduate and graduate programs and research in the arts, Sciences humanities, and social sciences were united with those in the physical Baker-Nord Center for the Humanities sciences to form the College of Arts and Sciences.

That most famous of celestial signposts in the constellation Ursa Major, the Big Dipper is essentially a random distribution of stars that our eyes assemble into a pattern because that s what our eyes are designed to do. We see a string of lights across a dark background, and we draw a picture in the night sky. In three dimensions, we would have a different image: seven stars at divergent distances. The light reaching our eyes at any moment has departed these seven sources at scattered times. While the middle five stars (Merak, Phecda, Megrez, Alioth and Mizar) are actually part of a cluster averaging 80.6 light-years away, the tip of the handle (Alkaid) is 100 light-years distant. And the pointer stars, showing the way to northern beacon Polaris, are 45 light-years apart: Merak at 79 light-years from earth, and Dubhe at 124 light-years. The numbers tell us our eyes have been deceived. Separating apparent patterns from significant patterns is a specialty of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, mapping one-fourth of the northern sky in three dimensions, working on a cosmic scale well beyond that of individual stars to sort out details of large-scale structure.
