university in 1964... Throughout its long history, Cleveland State
University and its predecessors pioneered work in developing student internships
with business and industry, expanding an extensive co-op program, and attracting
students who did not otherwise have access to higher education... The
Cleveland State campus consists of 85 acres - the largest footprint in downtown
Cleveland - with 40 buildings used for teaching, research, housing,
administration, and recreation. Nineteen-story Rhodes Tower contains the
