The University at Buffalo is the state’s largest and most comprehensive[citation needed]public university and is spread across three campuses: North Campus, South Campus, and Downtown Campus.[72][73] The Sustainable Endowments Institute's College Sustainability Report Card awarded the university a B-. North Campus[edit] The North Campus, a census-designated place also called "University at Buffalo", located in the suburb of Amherst, began in the 1970s.[75] Many academic programs, including the entirety of the undergraduate College of Arts and Sciences, the University at Buffalo Law School, the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the School of Management, the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences [until Fall 2012], the Graduate School of Social Work, and the Graduate School of Education, as well as Lockwood Memorial Library, Capen Library, and many administrative offices, are located on UB's North Campus. The North Campus is home to administrative and academic offices. The main buildings are arranged along one academic "spine", a second floor connecting corridor, that connects most of the main academic buildings. The whole campus covers 1,192 acres (5 km2) with 146 buildings containing 6,715,492 sq ft (623,890 m2), 10 residence halls and 5 apartment complexes.[72] Its immense size also necessitated the creation of a shuttle system circling the academic sector and surrounding areas including the administrative complex, located nearly a quarter mile from the central academic area. When originally built by the state of New York, the North Campus was provided with two Interstate exits, from I-290 and I-990, its own internal parkway, the John James Audubon Parkway, and two small lakes created from Ellicott Creek. As a census-designated place, the residential population recorded at the 2010 census was 6,066.[76] The North Campus offers a variety of entertainment programming and activity for students. It contains the Student Union, which houses offices for the Student Association and student-interest clubs; Slee Hall, which presents contemporary and classical music concerts; Alumni Arena, the home-court for University Athletics; the UB Center for the Arts, a non-profit presenter of a wide variety of professional entertainment and UB Stadium, the 30,000 seat Football Stadium. South Campus[edit] The South Campus, also known as the Main Street campus, located on 154 acres (0.62 km2) in North Buffalo, is the former grounds of the Erie County Almshouse and Insane Asylum, of which four buildings still remain (Hayes Hall, the former insane asylum; Wende Hall, a former maternity hospital; Hayes D; and Townsend Hall, a former nurses' quarters).[77] The college was designed by architect E.B. Green in 1910, and was intended to resemble Trinity College, Dublin. Its 53 buildings contain (3,045,198 sq ft (282,908 m2)) and include six resident halls.[72] This campus is served by the northernmost subway station on Buffalo's Niagara Frontier Metro Rail system. Today, the South Campus is home to the School of Pharmacy and the School of Architecture and Urban Planning. The Medical School is currently in the process of moving from South Campus to the new Downtown Campus in Buffalo. In addition, the University at Buffalo South Campus is the home of the WBFO radio station, the University's biomedical science research complex, the Health Sciences Library and certain administrative offices. Additionally, 20 percent of UB's resident population continues to live in the original residential complexes located on the South (Main Street) Campus. Downtown Campus[edit] In 2002, UB commissioned Boston firm Chan Krieger to create a third campus center.[75] The Downtown Campus is the site of UB's New York State Center of Excellence in Bioinformatics and Life Science, which partners in research with UB's Ira G. Ross Eye Institute[78][79] as well as the Roswell Park Cancer Institute and Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute to compose the Buffalo-Niagara Medical Campus. The medical campus, which is designed to meet LEED Silver criteria, incorporates high efficiency lighting, heat recovery systems, and an EnergyStar roof. The architect behind the combined facility is Francis Cauffman, and the structural engineer is Leslie E. Robertson Associates (LERA).[citation needed] Also located in the downtown area is UB's Research Institute on Addictions (RIA), Educational Opportunity Center (EOC)[80] and the Jacobs Executive Development Center (JEDC). The campus includes six major properties and a total of 43 buildings, counting shared lease space (588,506 sq ft (54,674 m2)).[81] In September 2007, UB added the former M. Wile and Company Factory Building on the southeast corner of Goodell and Ellicott streets and the former Trico Products Corp. building complex on the northwest corner of Goodell and Ellicott streets to its properties downtown. The UB Regional Institute, Center on Rehabilitation Synergy, and a number of pre-K-16 initiatives related to UB's civic engagement mission, such as the UB-Buffalo Public Schools Partnership office, are set to relocate to the first site. The latter location has been purchased to house additional biomedical- and life science-related businesses connected to the Buffalo-Niagara Medical Campus.[82][83] Teaching hospitals[edit] UB's teaching hospitals include Buffalo General Hospital, the Erie County Medical Center (ECMC), Millard Fillmore Hospital, Roswell Park Cancer Institute and Veterans Affairs Western New York Health Care System. Additional facilities include free clinics such as the Kaleida Health's Niagara Family Health Center and the Lighthouse Free Medical Clinic, a program run by UB medical students. UB Art Galleries[edit] UB is home to two university art galleries, the UB Anderson Art Gallery and the UB Art Gallery at the Center for the Arts. Adjacent to the UB South Campus is the UB Anderson Art Gallery,[84] a converted elementary school with an all-glass atrium exhibit space. The UB Anderson Gallery hosts exhibitions curated by faculty and visiting curators and features works from international and professional artist in its two floor facility. The UB Anderson Gallery building, along with over 1,200 works of art, was donated to the University in 2000 by collector and gallery owner David K. Anderson, son of legendary New York gallerist Martha Jackson.[85] Selections from the personal collection of Martha Jackson that was donated to the UB Anderson Gallery by David Anderson are on display in a 360 degree permanent installation in the Martha Jackson Gallery Archives and Research Center, on the second floor of the gallery. The UB Art Gallery at the Center for the Arts is located on the north campus, and features works from contemporary artists, as well as faculty and students across disciplines. See also: List of university art museums and galleries in New York State Comprehensive Physical Plan[edit] The University at Buffalo has accumulated over 29,000 undergraduate and graduate students, as well as 14,000 employees, across three campuses in the last 160 years. In order to accommodate both students and faculty, the university is currently implementing a $4.5 million Comprehensive Physical Plan to help in growth as well as to best utilize and enhance current facilities. Connecting all three campuses, as well as the facilities UB uses, is also a major element of the project. The firm granted the contract to lead the project isBeyer Blinder Belle. The comprehensive physical planning process is broken into four phases. Currently, UB is implementing "phase one" by seeking input from the local and university communities to pinpoint issues, opportunities, and concerns related to this expansion. The project recognizes UB’s potential for excellence, in regard to the university's physical environment, by highlighting and evaluating various positive and negative attributes of the three campuses, including housing, circulation, functionality, landscape, and community interface.

宿舍条件
Student residence halls are located on both the North and South Campuses. On the North Campus, there is the Ellicott Complex, which consists of Fargo, Porter, Red Jacket, Richmond, Spaulding, and Wilkeson Quadrangles. The Ellicott Complex is also known as "Lego Land" because the shapes of the buildings resemble Legos stacked upon each other. Next to Fargo Quad is the newly built in 2011 Greiner Hall, a dorm strictly for sophomores. Also on North Campus is the Governors Complex, home to the Freshman Honors Housing and various other living communities. On South Campus is Goodyear and Clement Hall. The unique aspect of these dorms is that residents share a bathroom with the adjacent room, rather than have a communal bathroom. Up until Spring of 2011, there were three other dorm buildings, referred to as "The Quad": MacDonald, Pritchard, Schoellkopf, and Michael Hall. Michael Hall currently exists as the Student Health Center, whereas the other three are closed and abandoned. In 1999, the university built its first apartment complex for families and graduate students at Flickinger Court. Since the success of Flickinger, UB has developed South Lake Village, Hadley Village, Flint Village, and Creekside Apartments. Most students who wish to still live on or near the North Campus but enjoy the lifestyle of apartment living take advantage of these apartments. University Village at Sweethome and Villas at Chestnut Ridge are both student apartment communities adjacent to the North Campus and offer a shuttle service.[95] Collegiate Village off campus apartments offers transportation to both North and South Campus.[96] Students also find housing in private locations. Those locations are generally situated in the University Heights district of Buffalo, and other areas close to the North and South Campuses. The school assigns rooms based on a lottery system.

体育培养
The school's sports teams are known as the Buffalo Bulls, or UB Bulls.[97] The women's teams were originally called the Buffalo Royals. The Bulls currently play in Division I (Division I FBS of the NCAA in football),[97] and are a member of the Mid-American Conference (MAC) for all sports except women's rowing, which is in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA).[97] The Bulls have been a member of the Mid-American Conference since 1998.[97][98] The Buffalo Bulls field 11 men's and women's athletic teams in sports, although only nine team sports for both men and women are identified on the official website.[97] Men's team sports at UB include those in football, basketball, track and field, baseball, wrestling, soccer, swimming and diving, cross country, and tennis.[97] The Bulls' women's teams feature basketball, track and field, cross country, volleyball, softball, soccer, rowing, tennis, and swimming and diving.[97] Cheerleading is co-ed. The Bulls have had dozens of athletes turn professional in football, baseball, basketball, soccer, and volleyball.[99] The mascot of UB's athletic teams is Victor E. Bull, a blue bull with a gold nose ring.[100] In 2001, Victoria S. Bull[100] was introduced as Victor's sister, but has not been observed for many years. Victor E. Bull is a UB student who is in costume during UB's home football and basketball games. The university is home to the Thunder of the East marching band. The band performs at all home football games and travels to both local and national parades and competitions. Buffalo has three fight songs: "Victory March", "Go for a Touchdown", and "Buffalo Fight Song".[101] The current Director of Athletics is Danny White. In 1958, the football team won the Lambert Cup, emblematic of supremacy in Eastern U.S. small-college football. That led to the team's first bowl invitation, to the Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, Florida, against Florida State University. But the Bulls would be allowed to participate only if backup defensive end Mike Wilson and starting halfback Willie Evans, who were black, did not play. The team stood behind the two, and refused the bowl offer; Buffalo did not receive another bowl invitation until the 2008 season when they won the MAC championship against previously undefeated Ball State.[102] Several UB football stars from the 1950s and early 1960s went on to play professional football, including quarterback John Stofa with the American Football League's Miami Dolphins and Cincinnati Bengals, and defensive lineman Gerry Philbin with the AFL's New York Jets. Philbin is a member of the AFL Hall of Fame and the All-time All-AFL Team. Philbin and UB's Willie Ross were the first two UB graduates to play on professional football championship teams in the United States: Ross with the 1964 AFL Champion Buffalo Bills; and Philbin with the 1968 AFL Champion New York Jets, who also won that season's AFL-NFL World Championship Game (Super Bowl III). James Starks was on the Green Bay Packers Super Bowl XLV champions as a rookie. Ramon Guzman played on the 2009 Grey Cup champion Montreal Alouettes. After several years of poor performance in the two most popular college sports, men's basketball and football, the university's men's basketball team has recently begun to show some promise. In March 2005, the men's basketball team reached the Mid-American Conference Championship game, but suffered a harrowing 79–80 loss to the Ohio Bobcats, thus missing a chance for their first trip to the NCAA Tournament. On March 25, 2009, the athletic department announced that the rowing program joined the Colonial Athletic Association as an associate member. The Women's Rowing team went on to win the CAA championship in April 2010 for the first time. In May 2010, the team won the Jack & Nancy Seitz Women's Point Trophy at the Dad Vail Regatta for the third year in a row, nicknamed the "threepeat" by Head Coach Rudy Wieler. With the hiring of Turner Gill as head football coach in 2006, UB was the only Division I-A school with an African American athletic director (Warde Manuel), men's basketball head coach (Reggie Witherspoon), and football head coach (Gill). Jamey Richard, a 2008 UB graduate, plays in the National Football League, and was selected by the Indianapolis Colts in the 7th round, with the 236 pick of the 2008 NFL Draft. Trevor Scott, 2008 graduate of the University of Buffalo, plays in the NFL, and was selected by the Oakland Raiders. Quarterback Drew Willy, a 2009 graduate of the University of Buffalo, originally signed with the Baltimore Ravens, and later the practice squad of the Indianapolis Colts. He was on the active roster for the Colts for one game, and was with the team for Super Bowl XLIV. He is currently on the roster of the Saskatchewan Roughriders. James Starks (6th round, 193rd overall) now plays with the Green Bay Packers. Naaman Roosevelt (undrafted, started off as a player on the practice squad, but moved to the big club later on) played for the Buffalo Bills.[103] In 2014, outside linebacker Khalil Mack was drafted by the Oakland Raiders fifth overall in the 2014 NFL Draft[104] making him the highest selected Bulls player ever. Previously, the highest selected player was Gerry Philbin in 1964. Mack holds the all-time NCAA record for forced fumbles and is also tied for career tackles for loss in the NCAA. Leading up to the draft, Mack was projected as a high first round pick in many mock drafts.

李彦宏
李彦宏,男,汉族,无党派人士,1968年11月出生,山西阳泉人,百度创始人、董事长兼首席执行官,全面负责百度的战略规划和运营管理。 1991年,李彦宏毕业于北京大学信息管理专业,随后前往美国布法罗纽约州立大学完成计算机科学硕士学位,先后担任道·琼斯公司高级顾问、《华尔街日报》网络版实时金融信息系统设计者,以及国际知名互联网企业——Infoseek公司资深工程师。李彦宏所持有的“超链分析”技术专利,是奠定整个现代搜索引擎发展趋势和方向的基础发明之一。 2000年1月,李彦宏创建了百度。经过十多年的发展,百度已经发展成为全球第二大独立搜索引擎和最大的中文搜索引擎。百度的成功,也使中国成为美国、俄罗斯和韩国之外,全球仅有的4个拥有搜索引擎核心技术的国家之一。2005年,百度在美国纳斯达克成功上市,并成为首家进入纳斯达克成分股的中国公司。百度已经成为中国最具价值的品牌之一。 2013年,当选第十二届全国政协委员,兼任中国民间商会副会长,第十一届中华全国工商业联合会副主席、第八届北京市科协副主席等职务,并获聘“国家特聘专家”。2018年1月19日,出版的《时代》周刊刊发了对百度董事长兼首席执行官李彦宏的专访。并且李彦宏以“the innovator(创新者)”的称谓,成为了本期亚洲版的封面人物。这是中国互联网企业家第一次登上时代周刊封面;2018年12月18日,党中央、国务院授予李彦宏同志改革先锋称号,颁授改革先锋奖章。 1968年,李彦宏出生在山西阳泉一个普通的家庭。年少时着迷过戏曲,曾被山西阳泉晋剧团录取。但中学时代,李彦宏回归“主业”,全身心投入功课学习中。1987年,李彦宏以阳泉市第一名的成绩考上了北京大学图书情报专业(即现在的信息管理)。不过,其迈进中国最高学府的激动心情,渐渐被图书情报学的枯燥、乏味消融。 “那时候,中国的氛围较为沉闷,大学毕业进入机关单位,已经是非常好的选择了。在我看来,选择出国是一条自然而然的道路。”从大三开始,李彦宏心无旁骛,买来托福、GRE等书,过着“教室—图书馆—宿舍”三点一线的生活,目标是留学美国,方向锁定在计算机专业。 1991年,李彦宏收到美国布法罗纽约州立大学计算机系的录取通知书。白天上课,晚上补习英语,编写程序,经常忙碌到凌晨两点。 “现在回想起来,觉得当时挺苦的,但年轻就应该吃苦。”李彦宏评价这段经历。“我出国不是一帆风顺。因为换专业,刚到美国学计算机,很多功课一开始都跟不上。有时和教授面谈时,由于较心急,谈一些自己不是很了解的领域,结果那些教授就觉得我不行。”在学校呆了一年后,李彦宏顺利进入日本松下实习。“这三个多月的实习,对我后来职业道路的选择起了至关重要的作用。”李彦宏说。 “硅谷给予我最大的感触是,希望通过技术改变世界,改变生活。”1994年暑假前,李彦宏收到华尔街一家公司——道·琼斯子公司的聘书。“在实习结束后,研究成果得到这一领域最权威人物的赏识,相关论文发表在该行业最权威的刊物上,这对以后的博士论文也很有帮助。”李彦宏说:“但那时候,中国留学生中有一股风气,就是读博士的学生一旦找到工作就放弃学业。起先,我认为自己不会这样。但这家公司老板也是个技术专家,他对我的研究非常赏识。两人大有相见恨晚的感觉。士为知己者死,于是我决心离开学校,接受这家公司高级顾问的职位。”在华尔街的三年半时间里,李彦宏每天都跟实时更新的金融新闻打交道,先后担任了道·琼斯子公司高级顾问、《华尔街日报》网络版实时金融信息系统设计人员。 1997年,李彦宏离开了华尔街,前往硅谷著名搜索引擎公司Infoseek(搜信)公司。在硅谷的日子,让李彦宏感受最深刻的还是商战气氛。他经常翻看《华尔街日报》:微软如何跳出来公然反叛IBM,又怎样以软件教父的身份对抗SUN、网景等等,这些故事让李彦宏感觉到:“原来技术本身并不是唯一的决定性因素,商战策略才是真正决胜千里的因素。”李彦宏在海外的8年时间里,中国互联网界正发生着翻天覆地的变化。 从1995年起,李彦宏每年要回国进行考察。1999年,李彦宏认定环境成熟,于是启程回国,在北大资源宾馆租了两间房,连同1个财会人员5个技术人员,以及合作伙伴徐勇,8人一行,开始了创建百度公司。接着,李彦宏顺利融到第一笔风险投资金120万美金。在百度成立的9个月之后,风险投资商德丰杰联合IDG又向百度投入了1000万美元。2001年,李彦宏在百度董事会上提出百度转型做独立搜索引擎网站,开展竞价排名的计划。然而,他的这个提议遭到股东们的一致反对:此时,百度的收入全部来自给门户网站提供搜索技术服务支持。如果百度转做独立的搜索引擎网站,那些门户网站不再与百度合作,百度眼前的收入就没了;而竞价排名模式又不能马上赚钱,百度就只有死路一条。在充分陈述了自己的计划和观点后,仍旧得不到首肯的李彦宏平生第一次发了大火。尽管李彦宏的一贯自信这次受到了极大的挑战,然而只要他认准了的东西,几乎没有人能改变,尤其是在关乎百度未来发展的大方向、大问题上,他丝毫不会退让。最终,投资人同意李彦宏将百度转型为面向终端用户的搜索引擎公司,他们告诉李彦宏:"是你的态度而不是你的论据打动了我们。" 推出竞价排名并实施“闪电计划”对百度实行第二次技术升级后,百度已成为全球第二大的独立搜索引擎,在中文搜索引擎中名列第一。2014年10月,在2014中国富豪榜中,李彦宏以147亿美元身家名列第二。2005年8月,百度在美国纳斯达克成功上市,成为全球资本市场最受关注的上市公司之一。
