Nos. 700-714 NORTH PARK STREET, COLUMBUS, OHIO THE MIAMI STUDENT June 1905 GREATER MIAMI Following the series of all of the completed buildings of Miami University given in the STUDENT this year, it seems fitting that it should be closed with a bird's-eye view of the institution as we hope to see it some day. At the beginning of the administration of President Benton, it was deemed wise to plat the grounds and provide for future growth on some regular plan, and this was done. Many of the older institutions have made mistakes in locating buildings because of the absence of some regular plan. A committee of the Board of Trustees would walk over the Campus and locate a new building as though it were the last ever to be built. This could not help but result in mistakes. The accompanying cut shows that the grounds at Miami have been laid out according to the quadrangular plan of English Universities. During the present administration we have taken great strides toward a realization of the Greater Miami,-Brice Scientific Hall has been more than trebled in capacity; Hepburn Hall, the woman's dormitory, has been built, and the prospective Carnegie Library is sure to come. For these fine improvements most credit is due to our energetic President. With pride in the Miami of today our hopes are confident for the Greater Miami in the days to come, and, at the rate we have been progressing during the past three years, we have not long to wait for its full realization.
