Nevada Facts: |

Originally the heart of the campus, this beautiful area is the traditional setting for Commencement activities, and provides a pleasant place for picnics, concerts, and quiet reflection. Since 1987, the University of Nevada Quadrangle has been listed as a "Jeffersonian academic village" on the National Register of Historic Places, as the campus core follows Thomas Jefferson's design for the University of Virginia. The lovely, giant elm trees were planted in 1908. |
