註釋Nestled on Sehome Hill on one of the most beautiful campuses in the country, Western Washington University has been called "a jewel of a university." Overlooking the sparkling waters of Bellingham Bay, with snow-covered Mt. Baker not far away, the verdant campus forms a backdrop to an internationally renown Outdoor Sculpture Collection with works by di Suvero, Judd, Nauman, Sierra, Holt and many others. In this book, widely acclaimed photographer Phil Schofield has sensitively captured the extraordinary loveliness of Western's campus in all its seasons as well as the vibrancy of the students who live, study and play here. Western Washington University: One Hundred Years traces the history of the school from its beginnings as New Whatcom School to the present day as a nationally respected, top ranked regional comprehensive university. Archival photos record those early days when young women and men prepared to teach in a new and growing state, often in one-room, rustic schools located in logging, fishing and farming towns. As the school grew from normal school, to a four-year college of education, state college and university, so also did its traditions and memories of campus life. In these pages, you will see a place that you remember, a piquant and nostalgic counterpoint to the lively university of today.
