THE STORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA A more beautiful campus than the one situated in Reno, Nevada, will be hard to find. It is nestled cozily around shimmering Monzanita Lake, surrounded by rolling green lawns and tall pines. The campus is dissected by a picturesque, wooden tram at the lower end of Manzanita Lake. This small university, like a western Pioneer, has struggled for survival through the hardships of finance and small attendance to become an outstanding institution ... In the year 1864 the University of Nevada was established by an article in the State Constitution. The Nevada State Legislature v as to provide the financial means to further the education of Nevada ' s popula- tion. Departments of literature, science, agriculture, and mechanics were to be established . . . The University was first located in Elko in 1873. There was but one instructor, D. R. Sessions, who served as principal and teacher. During the time the University of Nevada was held at Elko there were never more than thirty-five students at a time, attendance being confined to the population of Elko. Due to this limited attendance, the University did very poorly. Consequently, in 1865, the University was moved to Reno, where it stands today . . . On March 31, 1886, the Univer- sity really got under v ay and, with LeRoy K. Brown serving in the capacity of president, the University gradually expanded and flourished. During the next few years, Morrill Hall, the Agriculture Experimental Buildings and a machine shop were added; Washoe Couniy even contributed a sixty-acre farm towards the establishment of the University . . .
