This is the second photo from a photo shoot on the University of Akron campus last week. Best seen in large size.
This is one of the most amazing buildings I have ever seen in terms of reflective glass. I spent an afternoon a week ago in meetings here and of course had to capture this scene. Best seen in large view.
Polymer science (the study of macromolecules) has long been a research strength of the University of Akron (Akron, Ohio). Breakthroughs in the field over the years have given rise to many generations of rubber, plastic, and composite materials and products. Now one of the most innovative uses of polymers is in the medical devices and supplies field. The economic development importance of polymers was not well recognized until the late 1970s and early 1980s. I worked with a team back then giving birth to the idea of the "Polymer Valley" in Northeast Ohio, akin to the Silicon Valley in California's Bay Area, as a strategy to catalyze economic and job growth in the Akron and Cleveland areas.
