But it can also illuminate the present, especially when investigations are undertaken to better examine the history of institutions such as colleges and universities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eBeneath the Ivory Tower\u003c\/i\u003e, contributors offer a series of case studies to reveal the ways archaeology can offer a more objective view of changes and transformations that have taken place on America's college campuses. From the tennis courts of William and Mary to the \"iconic paths, lawns, and well-ordered brick buildings\" of Harvard, this volume will change the ways readers look at their alma maters--and at archaeology. Also included are studies of Michigan State, Notre Dame, South Carolina, Massachusetts, Illinois, North Carolina, Washington \u0026amp; Lee, Santa Clara, California, and Stanford.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Russell K.
