Case Western Reserve University exemplifies the adage that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
It began in 1826 with the founding of Western Reserve College in Hudson, Ohio. In 1882, the Case School of Applied Science opened its doors in Cleveland’s University Circle. Then in 1967, these two great institutions joined forces through a federation, becoming Case Western Reserve University . This proud history has supported its vision, mission, focus, and perseverance to become one of the country’s leading private research universities.
Over a period of two hundred years, countless people have benefitted from the wisdom and innovation of the university’s founders, trustees, faculty, staff, researchers, and generous alumni. The impact of Case Western Reserve is far-reaching across medicine, dentistry, nursing, physics, chemistry, engineering, social work, management, and law, as well as a broad range of core disciplines in the arts and sciences. Sixteen Nobel Laureates and the accomplishments of scores of notable alumni provide testament to the university’s devotion to academic excellence, research, and innovation.
This book is dedicated to the bicentennial celebration of Case Western Reserve University’s history and promise for the future.
