CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY is located in Cleveland’s University Circle, the 500-acre, park-like home of more than 40 cultural, medical, educational, relig- ious, and social service institutions (see list of member institutions on page 3). The only independent, research-oriented university in a re- gion bounded by Pittsburgh and Rochester on the east, Nashville on the south, and Chicago on the west, Case Western Reserve holds mem- bership in the Association of American Universities, and is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools’ Commission on Institutions of Higher Education and by several nationally recog- nized professional accrediting associations (see list on page 2). HISTORY AND TRADITIONS

Although its origins date to 1826, the University in its present form is the result of the 1967 federation of Case Institute of Technology and Western Reserve University. The two institutions had shared adjacent campuses since the late nineteenth century, and were involved in co- operative efforts for many years. This union of an institute of technol- ogy and a liberal arts university was unprecedented in higher educa- tion, a singular opportunity to promote interaction between the domi- nant themes in American culture. Western Reserve College was founded in 1826 in Hudson, Ohio, a town 26 miles southeast of Cleveland. The College took its name from that of the region which, at the time of the American Revolution, was known as the Western Reserve of Connecticut. In 1882, renamed West- ern Reserve University and boasting a medical school in addition to its undergraduate programs, the institution moved to the Cleveland site that later became known as University Circle. There it joined Case School of Applied Science, founded in 1880 through the bequest of Leonard Case, Jr., a leading citizen of Cleveland. The name Case Insti- tute of Technology was adopted in 1947 to reflect the institution’s growing stature in the sciences and engineering. The University’s logotype features the risingsun, a traditionalsymbol Among the earliest and best known examples of collaboration be- for learning that also dominates tween the two schools was the Michelson-Morley experiment, per- the University’s corporate seal. formed on the current campus in 1887 by one faculty member from Likenesses of the seal and logo- type, the name of the University, Case School of Applied Science and one from Western Reserve Univer- and the acronym “CWRU”are reg- sity.

The tradition of this experiment lives on in the periodic

In the 171 years since its founding, the University has developed a wide array of traditions, many of which are annual events in the life of the institution. For example, the beginning of each academic year fea- tures an address by the President on “The State of the University.” The fall semester includes Freshman Orientation, Homecoming Weekend, and Parents’ Weekend. Spring semester brings a two-day science fic- tion film marathon, the Faculty-Staff Talent Show, Greek Week, Engi- Accreditation neers’ Week, and the Hudson Relays, a 26-mile relay race between un- In additionto being accreditedat the institutionallevel dergraduate classes to commemorate the move from the original cam- by the North Central Association of Colleges and pus of Western Reserve College to the present campus.

The University has awarded more than 120,000 degrees during its his- tory, including more than 2,600 in the 1996-97 academic year. Living alumni number approximately 92,000. About 30 percent of the Univer- sity’s alumni live in Northeast Ohio, with other major concentrations in California and Florida and in the Middle Atlantic states. The University Alumni Council brings together the presidents of each of the alumni associations for the several schools and colleges, and the heads of the largest regional alumni chapter organizations (now numbering 21 internationally). The Council represents all alumni in providing advice to the President of the University. In addition to providing generous financial support for the insti- tution, University alumni are active in such areas as student recruit- ment, placement, and career advising, and many serve on visiting com- mittees and other groups that help strengthen academic programs and services in the schools and colleges.

Case Western Reserve’s 128-acre campus is the heart of Cleveland’s University Circle, home to more than 40 other educational, cultural, scientific, artistic, religious, and health-care institutions (see list on page 3). University students and faculty participate with these institu- tions in a wide range of joint programs of teaching and research. The University’s campus activities take place in 87 buildings des- ignated for academic, administrative, and residential use and encom- passing more than 5,600,000 gross square feet of space. By far the ma- jority of this space is used for academic and administrative purposes, including four major and several smaller libraries with collections that number more than 1,900,000 volumes. The University also operates a 450-acre farm in Hunting Valley, a suburb east of the campus, as a site for research, teaching, and recreation. In 1988, the University completed a master plan for the physical development of the campus, setting priorities for the next several years and guidelines for campus development for the following quarter cen-

Case Western Reserve’s role in regional and national economic development has grown in recent years, often serving as a model for in- stitutions elsewhere in the nation. Some of this activity has taken the form of collaboration with local, state, and federal agencies and indus- try groups in partnerships designed to advance research in high- priority areas (see page 11). To provide additional encouragement and coordination for these activities, the University operates an Office of Community Service, with a mandate to build stronger links with or- ganizations in the community and to work with students, faculty, and Global Is as Global Does staff interested in addressing community priorities.

The University is in sound financial condition, having achieved a mod- est operating surplus in each of the past 25 fiscal years (see table on page 16 for operating results for the fiscal years ending June 30, 1994, 1995, 1996, and 1997, and the preliminary budget for 1997-98). During this period the University has consolidated its operations, developed improved systems for financial controls, financed growth and im- provement in academic and administrative programs and facilities, and established reserves against anticipated future expenses. The Uni- versity employs a “management center” system in which the deans of the several academic units have significant responsibilities for both the income and expenses generated by their programs. The University’s operating budget for the 1997-98 fiscal year is about $411 million. Tuition and support for research and training are the two largest sources of revenue, accounting for 34 percent and 38 percent, respectively, of the total. The use of endowment income con- tributes about 9 percent of total revenue, representing investment in- come from an endowment portfolio of University-managed funds and funds held by others with a market value of approximately $1.158 bil- lion as of June 30, 1997. Note that compensation of full-time faculty members in the School of Medicine that is derived from patient-care programs is not reflected in the budget figures presented here. In addition to more than $185 million in federal funds last year to support research and training and for student financial aid, the Univer- sity currently receives about $5 million annually from the State of Ohio to help underwrite programs at the School of Medicine. Cooperation such as this with federal and state efforts, as well as with local and re- gional government programs, is important to the University’s role as a leading institution in the region and throughout the nation. ELECTRONIC LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

Case Western Reserve is a national leader in using advanced informa- tion technology to support teaching, research, and related activities. The basic elements of this “electronic learning environment” are pow- erful personal computers, massive information storehouses based on mainframe and minicomputer servers, and CWRUnet, the high-speed, fiber-optic cable that links them to more than 12,800 locations on the campus: libraries, offices, classrooms, laboratories, residence halls, etc.

17 CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY

The result is that students and faculty and staff members have ubiqui- tous access to local and remote information — electronic mail, research and administrative data, journal articles, and video and graphic im- ages. This program was launched in the late 1980s, and today repre- sents the most advanced computing and information network on any campus in the U.S. The Kelvin Smith Library, completed in 1996, is a central library that serves as an intellectual and physical hub for the fiber-optic spokes that now link computing equipment throughout the campus — and for the learning that represents the University’s principal mission. The li- brary integrates traditional library holdings and services (e.g., refer- ence, reserved sections, and “stacks”) with sophisticated electronic in- formation technology, including more than 1,100 CWRUnet ports serving virtually every seat in the building. Traditionally quiet study areas are complemented by spaces designed specifically for group use. In brief, the new facility represents a change in the role of the library: from storage of material to delivery of information. The advances in information management made possible by the creation of the “electronic learning environment” are being felt as well in the relationships between students and faculty. Over time, the fac- ulty member’s role is increasingly focused on helping students de- velop intellectual skills they will use for a lifetime. Faculty members, often with student assistance, have designed courseware tailored to in- dividual courses or students, and available to the students in these courses whenever and as often as they wish to use these materials. More than 300 courses have already been affected in this effort. The University has begun a formal examination of the needs and opportu- nities represented by distance learning, through which it will be possi- ble both to reach additional groups of students and to enhance the edu- cational experiences of traditional student groups. PRIVATE SUPPORT

Essential to the University’s tradition of independence is recognition of the importance of private giving. The University maintains a diverse array of fund-raising efforts directed toward alumni and other friends, foundations, corporations, and other private sources. Beginning in the mid-1970s, there has been considerable growth in support from foun- dations and corporations and from the University’s alumni and other friends. The Campaign for Case Western Reserve University was publicly launched in 1989 with a goal of $350 million for additions to endow- ment and for operating and capital purposes. This campaign, the eighth largest fund-raising drive in all of higher education at the time

Case Western Reserve holds membership in Division III of the Na- tional Collegiate Athletic Association, choosing to award scholarships and other forms of student assistance without regard to athletic ability and participation. The University is a founding member of the North Coast Athletic Conference, whose other members include Allegheny College, Deni- son University, Earlham College, Kenyon College, Oberlin College, Ohio Wesleyan University, Wittenberg University, and the College of Wooster. The NCAC was the first intercollegiate athletic conference in the nation to place equal emphasis on men’s and women’s sports. CWRU is also a founding member of the University Athletic As- sociation, a group of independent, research-oriented universities that do not offer athletic scholarships. The other members of the Associa- tion are Brandeis University, Carnegie Mellon University, the Univer- sity of Chicago, Emory University, Johns Hopkins University, New York University, the University of Rochester, and Washington Univer- sity in St. Louis. The University’s colors are blue and gray, and its varsity teams are known as the Spartans. In addition to varsity competition, the University also offers intra- mural competition in more than 30 sports, with a sufficiently large share of students participating to populate literally hundreds of teams. As this edition of the University Profile is published, construction is nearly complete on the Veale Convocation, Recreation and Athletic Center, which will provide a large, modern, flexible indoor space for athletic competition and for campus events. TO REACH THE CWRU CAMPUS
