Laboratory Row is a collection of buildings at Michigan State University's campus in East Lansing. Built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries it comprises the oldest collection of buildings on campus. The site originally was dedicated to the school's first farming facilities, but as the college a outgrew its first buildings additional academic space was needed. In all, seven buildings were built, of which six survive today.
Famous quotes containing the words laboratory and/or row:
“Today, each artist must undertake to invent himself, a lifelong act of creation that constitutes the essential content of the artist’s work. The meaning of art in our time flows from this function of self-creation. Art is the laboratory for making new men.”

“In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,”
