They are a big part of why Architectural Digest recently ranked the university as one of the most beautiful colleges in America. But Mizzou’s campus isn’t just beautiful.

So how does the university balance its historic beauty and architectural traditions with the needs of a modern community? On this week’s episode of Inside Mizzou, Chancellor Cartwright talks with Heiddi Davis, director of Planning, Design and Construction in Campus Facilities; and Brittany Smith, a senior civil engineering major who is also a member of the MU Tour Team. They discuss the thought process behind many of our new building projects, and how each addition makes campus an even more exceptional academic environment. Read the full transcript here.
