SUMMARY:The Origins of the Law Quadrangle: A Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:This walking tour meets at the corner of S. University Ave. and State St.\, on the outer northwest corner of the Law Quad. \nHave you ever wondered about the history of the buildings that sit in the middle of campus that many associate with the Renaissance\, east coast Ivy Leagues\, or even Hogwarts? \nThis walking tour seeks to familiarize you not only with the illustrious\, imposing architecture of the Law Quadrangle here at the University of Michigan but also with the historic presence of the Law School itself.
