*Case Western*
Case Western is a progressive reserve,
Ah,
Bright Young Minds.
A creative place of active collaboration
with
Ripe new finds.
A place where what you never knew to think of blossoms
&
The Joys of thinking, “You never know”
Rolls a world many never dreamt of.
With black lights that turn marbles into marvels;
And sculpts become National Monuments.
Medicine that helps fend plagues like leukemia and pulmonary infections.
Where dark energy can be turned to shed light on the gray matters of the universe.
Where keyhole surgery can be instrumental to valve replacement,
and lead the way to more medical developments.
Where people can meet and find livelihood from all over the country—from Potomac Yard
To our own backyard…
Right here in Cleveland, Ohio.
A world where I think becomes we think. And then we think becomes
We Made.
And We Made
becomes
the
USA.
This is a world where the students of Cleveland, Ohio
who’ve made a habit of testing new ground
have been trained to
Think Beyond the Possible
