John Trent: The University of Nevada, 1874-2024, Gebunden

Klappentext

With a foreword by University of Nevada, Reno President Brian Sandoval

In October 1874, a small preparatory school opened its doors in the remote northern Nevada town of Elko with an enrollment of seven students. With vision and determination, this tiny institution grew, and in 1886, Morrill Hall welcomed a class of thirty-five to the campus that was now nestled on a bluff above the Truckee Meadows located in Reno. At the time of the University of Nevada, Reno's sesquicentennial, nearly 21, 000 students, who have reached record levels of diversity and achievement, are now guided through the college experience by an equally diverse and talented faculty who mentor them toward their chosen professions. During the next 150 years, the University will continue to graduate exceptional students, as its community looks to the future while recollecting on the extraordinary dedication and achievements of the people who made the Wolf Pack what it is today.
