(Yes, this one is for all of the history buffs out there!) And there was plenty to discuss when it comes to our campus - which has been around since it's original construction in 1912.\n\nWe touch on a lot of fun topics Including the original purpose for the campus, the story of its pioneering founder (James J Hill) and some of the very interesting things we've learned since transitioning the grounds to a collaborative business campus in 2005.\n\nWe're lucky to have smart and curious people like Jill in our community, and resources like the Historical Society to turn to. Be sure to watch the follow up video to this discussion on our Youtube Channel!"}
