EDITORS COMMENTS
The American University, located in Washington, D.C., is a prestigious institution of higher learning with a rich history and beautiful campus. Established in 1893, the university was founded with the mission to provide an education that would "harmonize intellectual growth and spiritual development." This photograph, taken around 1899, captures the university's campus in its early days. The image shows the main building, which was the first structure built on the campus. Designed by the renowned architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White, the building is a stunning example of Beaux-Arts architecture. Its classical design, with its columns, pediments, and intricate detailing, reflects the university's commitment to academic excellence and tradition. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the lives of the students and faculty who attended the university over a century ago. The image shows the campus green, dotted with trees and students, as well as the university's first library, which was located in the main building. Today, The American University is a thriving institution, with over 13,000 students and a diverse faculty. It offers a wide range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional degree programs in fields such as business, education, law, and the arts and sciences. The campus has grown significantly since this photograph was taken, but the commitment to academic excellence and spiritual development remains the same. This photograph is a reminder of the university's storied past and its enduring commitment to providing a world-class education in the heart of the nation's capital.
