  • Campus Master Plan
    CAMPUS MASTER PLAN CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY 1 2 MASTER PLAN UMC-3318-2_2018 A Call to Action As higher education evolves, Case Western Reserve University must adapt to remain competitive. This adaptation must include long-term, sustainable strategies for growth. Partnerships such as the collaboration with Cleveland Clinic on the Health Education Campus (HEC) and innovation investments such as the Larry Sears and Sally Zlotnick Sears think[box] will help shape CWRU’s future. This Campus Master Plan builds on the long legacy of campus planning at CWRU and helps frame the continued success of the university. For this reason, the Campus Master Plan identifies profound and resourceful ways to elevate space quality and functionality. Recommendations include a series of catalytic projects, the formation of a design review board, policy recommendations and detailed building use strategies. Implementing this plan will strengthen the university and its neighbors alike. CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY 3 The Campus Master Plan It’s fashionable to think that campuses don’t matter anymore, that digital technology and remote learning have made buildings, commons, residence halls and libraries obsolete. Not true. Campus buildings, from residence halls to stadiums and labs, and physical features such as common areas, quads and walkways, are essential to learning, collaboration and the random encounters that make higher education so valuable. That’s why Case Western Reserve creates a Campus Master Plan every 10 years. The design and use of land and buildings are too important to be allowed to develop without careful thought and planning. Though it represents the consensus best thinking about the university’s future needs and goals, the plan is not a binding document, but rather a flexible No first-year student orientation would be complete without the spelling guide for the university.

  • The Collinwood School Fire of 1908
    H. F. Wendell Company, Leipsic, Ohio Mourning Card, 1902 ca. 1920 Gilt printing on white card stock; 4 ¼ x 6 ½ inches The mourning, or memorial, card reprinted on the cover was used by the funeral industry from 1902 to around 1920. Mourning cards became popular during the Victorian era and were often kept as reminders of lost friends or family members. Cards for children were typically printed on white cardboard, whereas cards for older people were printed on black cardboard. In reprinting this original card, the Library made no changes except for the wording in the center box, which typically would have contained the name of the deceased along with his or her birth and death dates. Reproduced courtesy of the Museum of Funeral Customs, Springfield, Illinois, www.funeralmuseum.org The Last Lesson Cleveland Plain Dealer, 6 March 1908 In Loving Remembrance: The Collinwood School Fire of 1908 An exhibit prepared by the History & Geography Department, Cleveland Public Library The Collinwood School Fire remains the worst school building fire in U.S. history. This is perhaps due to the heightened consciousness regarding fire safety following the disaster, but more concretely to the stricter building codes, better construction materials and lifesaving devices which came into use after the fire. A century-old myth holds that the students at Collinwood died because they were trapped behind doors that opened inward. This was quickly proven to be false, but the myth gained traction and is repeated to this day. It was the narrowness of the exit stairs and inner vestibule doorway, combined with the panic of the children as they rushed to escape, that led to their entrapment.
