About the cover:  From its mid-19th century proportion of one building on seven-and-a-half-acres, Millersville University has grown to a 250-acre campus with more than 60 buildings. The University’s modern research facilities, blended with Romanesque Revival structures and late-Victorian wooden frame houses, reflect its integration of contemporary and classical elements of education. The landscaped setting has a central pond set within lawns and gardens. Pictured here are Miller and S’ville, the campus’s resident swans.
