D ' espite its location in the heart of a city, the University ' s Central Campus is a place where trees and grassy, open spaces predominate over stone and steel. Ever since provisions were made in the early days of the school for a central yard (known to most as the Diag, of course), planners have given greenery and open areas high priority. Today students seeking recreation and rest share spacious grounds within sight of the commercial clutter of State Street or South University; buildings like the eight- story Harlan Hatcher Graduate Library are obscured from many directions by gi- ant oaks; even a former street Ingalls south of the RackTiam Building is now an expansive pedestrian mall. For persons on the campus, tranquil surroundings are usually just a few steps away. 21
