about 100 students. Now with over 42,000 students, UF's diverse
2,000-acre campus is home to about 920 buildings including approximately
160 for classrooms and laboratories. Several campus buildings are
listed on the National Register and a part of the campus is designated
as an Historic District. UF is also the site of several gardens and
