"Stevens: A Legacy of Knowledge and Beauty" Step into the historical realm of Hoboken, where in 1878, a college named Stevens Institute of Technology was established. This prestigious institution has been shaping minds since its founding in 1870, nestled in the vibrant city of Hoboken, New Jersey. Transport yourself back to the enchanting 19th century with a wood engraving that captures the essence of this era. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature as you encounter Madagascar jasmine and Common heath - Marsdenia floribunda and Epacris impressa respectively. But who is Stevens without mentioning Thaddeus Stevens? A prominent figure during his time, his influence echoed through history like The Milky Way itself. La Voie Lactee by an unknown artist showcases this celestial wonder on canvas around 1885. As we delve deeper into flora, let's admire Long-leaved euthales or Euthales macrophylla - a plant that exudes elegance and grace much like The Melton Breakfast painted by Sir Francis Grant. Switching gears from art to sports, Greyhound Racing takes center stage. Witness the agility and speed as these magnificent creatures race towards victory under cheering crowds' watchful eyes. Speaking of grandeur, Leonora Van Marter aka Countess of Tankerville captivates hearts with her charm and sophistication. Her presence leaves an indelible mark just like Middlesex Cricket Team did during their triumphant years in the 1930s. Yet amidst all this splendor lies a reminder of darker times – the American Civil War. Reflect upon its impact on society while admiring Paphiopedilum insigne orchid - resilient yet delicate just like those who lived through that tumultuous period. "Stevens" encompasses knowledge intertwined with natural wonders and human achievements throughout history. It serves as a testament to our collective journey, reminding us of the beauty and resilience that exists within our world.
