Visit Campus Come and take a campus tour: you’ll be impressed! From the classic architecture of the Front Campus, to the modern rippled roof of the Mathematics and Computer Sciences Building, beautiful buildings are surrounded by parklike green. Even our trees have won an award, when we became Ohio’s first Tree Campus USA University.
