The above photo of the campus of University of North Carolina at Greensboro was taken from the rose garden behind the Mossman Administration Building. It was a crisp, sunny, fall day; shadows were long and encroaching. The building to the left is part of the Jackson Library. It resembles an open book; however, do not be fooled. Inside the library you can find everything from great art to memorable books to a computer lab. At the lab, the digital world is only a click away. While not readily apparent from the photo, the library and the Harriet Elliot Student Union are connected by a covered hallway. You can research in the stacks and then go have a cup of coffee without going outside. Fabulous...
Milling around, it seemed as if we were at the heart of campus. The administration building is where giant decisions get handed down. The union building is where students purchase textbooks, spirit wear, and snacks. Many fabulous activities are hosted there. The library is the source of great knowledge. The roses envelop one in natural beauty. Surely, this is the heart of campus.
