Campus Beautiful is a core value of Iowa State and the title of a recently published book which provides a comprehensive look at the development of ISU's campus aesthetic design over the past 150 years.

Iowa State's campus has received national attention for its park-like vistas and careful integration of architecture and art into the landscape. Paula Mohr, architectural historian and one of the major essayists of the book, will lead a tour of central campus highlighting some of the design principles and features which have led critics to name Iowa State among the most beautiful campuses in the country. The tour will begin on the south porch of the Farm House Museum. Campus Beautiful will be available to purchase at the Farm House Museum before and after the tour for $100.
