University of Las Vegas

## History

The University of Las Vegas is a prestigious public university that ranks highly amongst the best schools in the nation. Many widespread icons in the pop culture world either attended or graduated from UNLV and is ranked highly in the research sector of colleges. The school itself was established in 1957 and has gone on to foster youth to become productive members of society. More recently, the school began to promote a superhuman friendly atmosphere as a result of the superhuman war against SHIELD. They do not require students to state that they are mutants or superhumans but they started to create special accommodations for it such as using part of their endowment to create an entire major that is dedicated to superhuman genetics and electives such as the history of superhumans (which is required for history majors).

## Layout

For it's credit, UNLV is pretty intuitive when it comes to its overall design. The main campus of UNLV is 332-acres of land and it is entirely centralized in Paradise, Nevada. The specific location is called University District which houses the campus as a whole, including both on-and-off campus housing.

On the East side of campus, this houses the athletics department and all of their facilities such as the track field, football field, two baseball fields, and a soccer field. This location also houses the Lied Athletics Complex and Paul McDermott Physical Education Complex for both the Kinesiology majors and various other sports majors.

Directly next to the athletics department is the Thomas & Mack Center where UNLV will host events such as basketball games, rodeo championships, and the occasional boxing matches. This is also where the NBA will hold their Winter League games. Attached to the Thomas & Mack Center is Cox Pavilion Arena where all of the UNLV-sponsored events take place such as their basketball games and etc.

In front of the Thomas & Mack Center are the Student Services Complex, The Office of Admissions, and The Student Recreation and Wellness Center. At the SRWC, this houses an in-door pool and is the main base for all of UNLV's sports clubs. Next to this is UNLV Law.

On the West side of campus, this houses a series of student residences. It is apartment-style with the buildings close to each other. The rooms themselves are studio-based and are relatively cheap to live in. This area is known as the "West Carter Complex". Behind the this is the off-campus housing complex. More expensive but more advanced as it was created by Dynamics Industries asa gift to the university. This is called the "Calloway Apartments".

Right next to the West Cater Complex is the history department and Eden Hall which houses all of the primary history major classes along with the UNLV Archives. The archives house several different authentic historical items and an extensive library that has first editions of iconic books. Next to the history department is the science and music departments where there is a "Nina Simone Hall" and a "Maria Stark Laboratory" for student use.

Lastly, in the center of campus, there is a statue of Captain America who visited University of Nevada, Reno and when he was tragically thought to be dead after World War II, the school erected a statue in his honor. They kept it after separating from Reno and becoming UNLV.
