Nice video highlighting some of our campus.... thought folks on this board would enjoy as we learn more about each other in this conference.

Very impressive! Hope to see a game at Cincy someday.

Nice video. I've always been a big fan of the University of Cincinnati.

I hope to make it out there someday to watch my Coogs battle UC in football.

Beautiful school.

They referred to several different campuses. Are they all located together? Or spread out in the city?

East and West Campus are connected and generally referred to as the University of Cincinnati Main Campus. West Campus is the primary undergraduate campus and houses every major school at the university outside of the medical fields. East Campus is the primary location of UC's medical, pharmacological, and nursing colleges known colloquially as "Pill Hill' in Cincinnati. The Vontz Center of Molecular Biology, a brick/steel building constructed with no structural right angles and designed by Frank Gehry (he's also designed two other buildings at UC), and the CARE/Crawley Center featured in the above film are on East Campus

Blue Ash campus is in a suburb 10 miles northeast of the city and Clermont campus is in Clermont County, the county immediately East of Hamilton County where the city of Cincinnati is located.

WOW, it is amazing to watch the video. Really proud of Cincy and American Athletic Conference. During last week, I have read a lot of articles and former and current AAC member schools. Keep it up guys. GO American!!

Great campus. The AAC can be proud to have you! The only thing missing is a F after UC.

Sounds like Duke with its East and West and North campuses, all interconnected. East campus is Georgian. There are some classrooms and a library. It's where all the freshmen live. North campus is the Duke Hospital/Med school district. West campus is Gothic and where most of the classrooms and the chapel are located. Upperclassmen live on West Campus or in some university owned apartments known as Central campus. Most of the frats are located on West Campus. Buses run every 10 minutes between East and West campus, which are located 2.2 miles apart.

Are the Blue Ash and Clermon campuses different universities in the UC system? Or are they part of the main UC campus and everyone's degree from those campuses says "University of Cincinnati"?

UH has a main campus and several satellite campuses (UH-Downtown, UH-Clear Lake, etc.) The other campuses are separate. The degree says UH-Downtown, etc. But they are part of the UH system. The President of the main campus also serves as the Chancellor of the UH System.

They are all part of the University of Cincinnati system but I believe they are still separate entities for the most part. That has been in transition for the past decade so it's a bit cloudy, even to an employee of the University such as myself, with the then Ohio College of Applied Sciences (a small technical college located on Victory Parkway right down the street from Xavier University), Raymond Walters College (Blue Ash), and Clermont College campuses being UC sponsored institutions until around 2006 when they were slowly but surely assimilated into the UC system. OCAS was incorporated into the College of Engineering which was then changed to the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences thus devaluing every Engineering student's degree post 2009. Raymond Walters College became UC-Blue Ash and Clermont College became UC-Clermont at roughly the same time. All campuses now walk at the same graduations and all graduates receive degrees from the University of Cicninnati though I believe there is still a note on the diplomas for the satellite campuses.
