Lehigh University Architecture Details


How well do you know the Lehigh campus? Take our quiz.

As part of the evoLUtion seminar, three teams of first-year students scoured the university campus to find architectural shapes and letters to spell out the word “Lehigh.” 

The students were tasked by their evoLUtion co-facilitators Christa Neu, a photographer in Lehigh’s Office of Communications, and Sarah Barnett, web content manager in the College of Business and Economics, as they explored one of bLUprint’s Five Foundations of Student Success: Collaborative Connections. (The other foundations are creative curiosity, identity development, inclusive leadership, and professional growth and success.) 

The teams found these gems. Do you recognize them?
