The University of Rochester (UR) is a private, coeducational and nonsectarian research university located in Rochester, New York. The university is one of 62 elected members of the Association of American Universities.

Founded in 1850, UR offers degree programs at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels, as well as in several professional disciplines. Its undergraduate and graduate degree programs in physics, medicine, economics, philosophy, clinical psychology, health and society, religion, political science, nursing, business administration and music are among the best in the nation. The Institute of Optics at the university is also the oldest optics program in the U.S., having granted about half of the optics degrees in the nation.

UR is a highly research oriented institution, hosting numerous centers of research, including the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, which boasts the most powerful ultraviolet laser in the world, and the University of Rochester Medical Center, featuring numerous biomedical and healthcare research facilities. Since 2005, UR with its affiliated Strong Health System, has been the largest employer in the Greater Rochester area.

History

The University of Rochester was founded in 1850 as a Baptist-sponsored institution.

The impetus to form the university came primarily from the little town of Hamilton, New York, which has been home to Colgate University since 1819.^[4] In 1850, the Baptist Education Society planned to move Colgate University to the city of Rochester, but was halted by legal action. Dissenting Colgate trustees, faculty, and students founded the University of Rochester. The first women students were admitted in 1900, the result of an effort led by Susan B. Anthony and Helen Barrett Montgomery.

Major growth occurred under the leadership of Rush Rhees, during his 1900-1935 tenure. During this time, George Eastman became a major donor, giving more than $50 million to the university, and the River Campus was established in 1927. The first Ph.D. was awarded in 1925. In 1955, the separate colleges for men and women were merged into The College. In 1958, three new schools were created in engineering, business administration, and education.^[5]

Administration

The university is headed by a board of trustees, with G. Robert Witmer, Jr. being the chairman.^[6] The board appoints the president of the university, currently Joel Seligman, who replaced Thomas H. Jackson on July 1, 2005.

Campuses

River Campus

The River Campus is the center of the university's academic and administrative activities. It is located in a bend of the Genesee River about 2 miles south of downtown Rochester and covers around 200 acres. It is bounded by Bausch & Lomb Riverside Park, an 18-acre public park along the east bank of the Genesee River. The original buildings of the campus were dedicated in 1930. The main academic buildings, designed in the Greek revival style, are centered around the Eastman Quadrangle (generally referred to as the academic quad) which is formed by Rush Rhees Library and Dewey, Bausch & Lomb, Morey, and Lattimore Halls. The Eastman Quad is widely considered the best landscaped area of the university. Rush Rhees Library, the unofficial symbol of the university, is also home to the Hopeman Memorial Carillon, the largest carillon in New York State, featuring 50 bells that chime on the quarter hour. During the summer, the carillon features a recital series in which various artists perform on the instrument. Over the course of the last several decades, other academic buildings have been built south of the Eastman Quad, including Meliora Hall (1972), Hoyt Hall (1962), Harkness Hall (1946), Gavett Hall (dedicated with the Eastman Quad in 1930), and the Hopeman Engineering Building (1963). The southernmost part of the River Campus contains the new Science and Engineering Quadrangle: Hutchison Hall (1972), Hylan Building (1971), the Computer Studies Building and Carlson Library (1987), Wilmot Building (1961), and Goergen Hall (completed in March 2007).^[8]

Students often congregate outdoors during the warmer months on the various quads. Other centers of student life include Todd Union, Frederick Douglass Dining Center, various locations inside Rush Rhees Library, and Wilson Commons, a student union designed by I.M. Pei. Many academic buildings, including Rush Rhees Library, are connected by a series of tunnel systems, which are used extensively, especially during unfavorable weather. Most academic buildings, the Eastman Quad, Wilson Commons, and Susan B. Anthony, Gilbert, and Hoeing Halls also have authenticated Wi-Fi internet access.^[9]

School song

The Genesee: words by T. T. Swinburne 1892, melody arranged by Herve D. Wilkins, 1966.^[25]

I. ''Full many fair and famous streams ''Beneath the sun there be, ''Yet more to us than any seems ''Our own dear Genesee. ''We love her banks and stately falls, ''For to our minds they bring ''Our dear old alma mater's halls ''Where sweetest mem'ries cling.

II. ''No castled crags along her way ''Romantic splendors cast; ''No fabled or historic lay ''Recalls the golden past. ''But more than battlemented walls, ''Or legends they may bear, ''Are alma mater's vine-clad halls ''And mem'ries ling'ring there.

III. ''As flows the river gath'ring force, ''Along her steadfast way, ''May we along life's devious course ''Grow stronger day by day. ''And may our hearts, where'er we roam, ''Forever loyal be ''To our beloved college home ''Beside the Genesee.

Traditionally only the first and third verses are sung at University functions.

Student life

Residences

The majority of undergraduate students at the university live and take classes on the River Campus. Underclassmen are generally required to live on campus while upperclassmen have the option to live off campus. Some graduate housing is provided by the university, but a significant number also live off campus. Housing is provided at multiple locations spread across the several campuses.^[26]

River Campus

River Campus residences house primarily undergraduates, with some graduate students serving as Graduate Head Residents (GHRs). Residences include:

• Fraternity Quad - Made up of nine houses, seven fraternities (Delta Kappa Epsilon, Alpha Delta Phi, Theta Chi, Psi Upsilon, Sigma Chi, Sigma Alpha Mu, and Delta Upsilon) and special interest housing groups, such as the Community Learning Center and Drama House, maintain housing here.
• Freshmen Housing - Consists of Susan B. Anthony Halls (Gannett, Gates, Hollister, and Morgan), located near Rush Rhees Library; and Hoeing Hall and Gilbert Hall, which are located on the Residence Quad. Freshmen live together in these specially designated residences that tend to feature increased supervision, regulation, and residence-related activities by inclusion of upperclassmen D'Lions and Freshmen Fellows along with Residential Advisers in living areas.
• Hill Court - Upperclass housing consisting of Chambers, Fairchild, Gale, Kendrick, Munro, and Slater houses, which are connected by underground tunnels. This residence area is colloquially known as "Phase" and is the newest residential area on the River Campus (opened in 1969).
• Residence Quad (ResQuad) - Consists of Burton, Crosby, Lovejoy, and Tiernan Halls for upperclassmen, as well as Hoeing and Gilbert Halls for freshmen. Burton and Crosby were the original dormitories on the River Campus, constructed in 1930, while the other four were built during the 1950s. All ResQuad buildings were fully renovated in the 1990s.
• River Campus Towers - Consists of Anderson and Wilder Towers and houses upperclassmen and several Special Interest Housing groups. The formal name for the area is Founders Court, but it is simply called "Towers" by most students.
• Southside - Formerly and colloquially known as the Graduate Living Center (GLC - pronounced "glick"), Southside consists of Valentine and deKiewiet Towers, as well as several "maisonettes," which offer apartment style living to upperclassmen. The residences tend to serve as overflow space for student housing. The residences are located south of the River Campus near the medical center, but house mostly River Campus undergraduate students.

Special Interest Housing floors and Fraternity floors also exist within the residence halls. Special interest housing floors include the International Living Center (ILC), Interclass Living Center (ICLC - Crosby 1), Music Interest Floor (MIF - Wilder 9), Health and Home (Valentine 6), Computer Interest Floor (CIF - Anderson 3), Tiernan Project (Burton 2), and the Film Interest Floor (FIF - Kendrick 1).

Eastman School of Music Campus

Housing is provided at the Eastman School of Music campus at the Eastman Student Living Center at 100 Gibbs Street in downtown Rochester. The new building was opened at the corner of Main and Gibbs Streets, replacing the University Avenue dormitories built nearly 70 years earlier. It is a four-story quadrangle and 16-story tower surrounding a landscaped inner courtyard.

URMC and Mount Hope Campuses

Graduate student housing is provided at 4 locations near the URMC and Mount Hope.

• The George Washington Goler House (GHS) immediately adjacent to the grounds of the URMC. It is a high rise apartment building with 321 apartments. The building also houses university community members, including faculty and staff.

• The Graduate Living Center Maisonettes (GLC Maisonettes) are located adjacent to the Southside Apartments (formerly and frequently still called the Graduate Living Center or "Glick") off of Kendrick Road. There are 22 apartments in 7 single story buildings. As of Fall 2007, the GLC Maisonettes are also available to third- and fourth-year undergraduate students.

South Campus

The South Campus has graduate student housing at the Whipple Park (WPK) complex, which features 250 garden apartments and townhouses with ample storage space. WPK also features a park-like setting with large wooded and lawn areas, playgrounds, areas for gardens and low street noise. Some housing is also provided at the River Road complex, which tends to serve as overflow housing for both undergraduate and graduate students.

Students' Association

The Students' Association (SA) is the primary student governing body and includes most of the student groups at UR. The SA is governed by the SA Senate, President and Vice President, all of whom are elected by the student body. The SA President is advised by a cabinet, which is a volunteer group of students. There is also a judicial branch, composed of the All Campus Judicial Council (ACJC), the members of whom are nominated by an interview committee and approved by the SA Senate. The offices of the SA are located in the Wilson Commons student union. ^[27]

The Campus Club Connection maintains a full list of all registered student activities groups at UR.

Athletics

UR's athletics teams are called the Yellowjackets. They participate in the Division III of the NCAA and in the University Athletic Association. One exception to this is the squash team, which plays in Division I.^[28] There are also numerous club and intramural athletics groups.

The main athletics facilities of the university are in the Robert B. Goergen Athletic Center and Fauver Stadium on the River Campus, with other facilities located in the Spurrier building (River Campus) and the URMC.^[29][30]

Campus & area transportation

The UR campuses are served by several bus lines of the Rochester-Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RTS). Students with school-issued IDs ride free on a few designated bus lines, including the dedicated campus transportation routes that serve the River Campus, URMC, South Campus and the Eastman Campus. There are also lines that run between the River Campus and local shopping and entertainment in Henrietta and Pittsford.

Rochester is also served by the Greater Rochester International Airport, which is located a short distance from the River Campus, Amtrak and Greyhound Lines, the latter two located in downtown Rochester.
