Whether you are a new student to our school or a returning member of our community, I am so glad that you are here. Wesley Theological Seminary is one of the largest protestant seminaries in the world-but we foster a small-community feeling. It is our hope that you feel the warmth of our community through diverse interactions and encounters with the student body, faculty, and staff as you discern your calling to minister to the world.

    RY NE:IGHBORHOOD COMMISSION 3E TENLEYTOWN AMERICAN UNIVERSITY PARK FRIENDSHIP HEIGHTS c/o Lisner-louise-Dickson-Hurt Home 5425 Western Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20015 www.anc3e.org June 21, 2011 BY E-MAil Anthony J. Hood Chairperson District of Columbia Zoning Commission 441 4th Street, NW Suite 210 South Washington, DC 20001 RE: ZC Case No. 11-07- American University Dear Chairperson Hood: On May 12, 2011 ANC 3E passed a resolution asking the Zoning Commission to postpone hearings on the above-referenced application until American University (herein referred to as "the University" or "AU") submitted its further processing application for relocation of its law school to Tenleytown. The resolution provided that if the Zoning Commission denied this request, ANC 3E opposed AU's application and might amend and/or supplement the resolution. At its June 9, 2011 hearing, the Zoning Commission acknowledged that significant gaps existed in AU's application. Rather than postpone the hearing, the Commission chose to proceed in the hopes that the hearing process itself might coax the missing information from the University. Given the Commission's decision to proceed, ANC 3E respectfully asks the Commission to permit it to supplement its May 12, 2011 resolution with this letter resolution. GOVERNING PRINCIPLES The University and the nearby communities have evolved together over the course of more than 100 years. During that period, AU has contributed to the community and city as a whole and imposed burdens on both. The overarching goal of the campus plan process should be to deepen the partnership between the University and community, enhance the benefits the University delivers to the community and city, and ameliorate the burdens it imposes on them.

    EXHIBIT R CAMPUS SIGNAGE AND WAYFINDING CONCEPTS EXHIBIT S CAMPUS SPECIAL AND HERITAGE TREES EXHIBIT T CAMPUS TOPOGRAPHY EXHIBIT U CAMPUS SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES EXHIBIT V HISTORIC RESOURCES EXHIBIT V HISTORIC RESOURCES MAIN CAMPUS The Main Campus of American University is located along Nebraska and Massachusetts Avenues at Ward Circle. The original plan for the Main Campus was developed by Frederick Law Olmsted, but over time the plan was significantly modified due to financial constraints. Although new buildings have further compromised the spaces of the Olmsted plan, the northern part of the planned quadrangle (now the Friedheim Quadrangle) remains as the most important space on the original campus. Construction of Hurst Hall, designed by Van Brunt and Howe and W. M. Poindexter, began in 1897. It was the only building completed by the university’s official dedication on May 15, 1914. The second building on the Main Campus was McKinley Hall, which dates from 1917 and was designed by Henry Ives Cobb. Both the Van Brunt and Howe firm and Cobb were nationally significant, and both had experience designing collegiate buildings. Van Brunt and Howe was based in Boston. With an earlier partner (William Ware), Van Brunt designed Memorial Hall at Harvard. With Howe he designed the Medical School at Harvard and the library at the University of Michigan. Cobb was based in Chicago. He designed the Chicago Federal Building, several buildings at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, and buildings for Lake Forest College and the University of Chicago. American University first offered undergraduate degrees when it established the College of Liberal Arts (now the College of Arts and Sciences) in 1925.
