As the world becomes increasingly digital, we gain access to digital renderings of landmarks that transport you to their location with the click of a mouse. In these images, Andrew C. Winans ’25 has begun the process of creating high-quality renderings of Hampden-Sydney landmarks with the goal of creating a campus map that allows virtual visitors to explore our campus. This work was done under the supervision of Dr. Sean P. Gleason.<\/p>\r\n
