Composed of twelve schools and colleges , Northwestern offers 124 undergraduate degrees and 145 graduate and professional degrees . It is considered one of the most prestigious universities in the United States , notably in social sciences where it ranks 11th worldwide .   Northwestern was founded in 1851 by John Evans , for whom the City of Evanston is named , and eight other lawyers , businessmen and Methodist leaders . Its founding purpose was to serve the Northwest Territory , an area that today includes the states of Ohio , Indiana , Illinois , Michigan , Wisconsin and parts of Minnesota . Instruction began in 1855 ; women were admitted in 1869 . Today , the main campus is a 240 acre parcel in Evanston , along the shores of Lake Michigan 12 miles north of downtown Chicago . The university 's law , medical , and professional schools are located on a 25 acre campus in Chicago 's Streeterville neighborhood . In 2008 , the university opened a campus in Education City , Doha , Qatar with programs in journalism and communication . In 2016 , Northwestern opened its San Francisco space at 44 Montgomery St. , which hosts journalism , engineering , and marketing programs .   Northwestern is a large research university with a comprehensive doctoral program and it attracts over $ 650 million in sponsored research each year . Northwestern has the tenth largest university endowment in the United States , currently valued at $ 9.6 billion . In 2017 , the university accepted 9.0 % of undergraduate applicants from a pool of 37,255 .   Northwestern is a founding member of the Big Ten Conference and remains the only private university in the conference . The Northwestern Wildcats compete in 19 intercollegiate sports in the NCAA 's Division I Big Ten Conference .

positive: Big Ten Conference The Big Ten Conference ( B1G ) , formerly Western Conference and Big Nine Conference , is the oldest Division I collegiate athletic conference in the United States . The conference , consisting of 14 members as of 2016 , competes in the NCAA Division I ; its football teams compete in the Football Bowl Subdivision ( FBS ) , formerly known as Division I-A , the highest level of NCAA competition in that sport . The conference includes the flagship public university in each of 11 states stretching from New Jersey to Nebraska , as well as two additional public land grant schools and a private university .   The Big Ten Conference was established in 1895 when Purdue University president James H. Smart and representatives from the University of Chicago , University of Illinois , University of Michigan , University of Minnesota , Northwestern University , and University of Wisconsin gathered at Chicago 's Palmer House Hotel to set policies aimed at regulating intercollegiate athletics . In 1905 , the conference was officially incorporated as the `` Intercollegiate Conference Athletic Association '' .   Big Ten member institutions are predominantly major flagship research universities with large financial endowments and strong academic reputations . Large student enrollment is also a hallmark of Big Ten universities , as 12 of the 14 members feature enrollments of 30,000 or more students . Northwestern University , one of just two full members with a total enrollment of fewer than 30,000 students ( the other is the University of Nebraska -- Lincoln ) , is the lone private university among Big Ten membership ( the University of Chicago , a private university , left the conference in 1946 ) . Collectively , Big Ten universities educate more than 520,000 total students and have 5.7 million living alumni . Big Ten universities engage in $ 9.3 billion in funded research each year . Though the Big Ten existed for nearly a century as an assemblage of universities located primarily in the Midwest , the conference 's geographic footprint now spans from the state of Nebraska in the west to the Atlantic Ocean in the east .   Big Ten universities are also members of the Big Ten Academic Alliance , an academic consortium . In 2014 -- 2015 , members generated more than $ 10 billion in research expenditures . Despite the conference 's name , the Big Ten has grown to fourteen members , with the following universities accepting invitations to join : Pennsylvania State University in 1990 , the University of Nebraska -- Lincoln in 2011 , and both the University of Maryland and Rutgers University in 2014 . Johns Hopkins University was invited in 2012 to join the Big Ten as an associate member participating in men 's lacrosse only . In 2015 , it was also accepted as an associate member in women 's lacrosse . Notre Dame is scheduled to join the Big Ten in 2017 as an associate member in men 's ice hockey .

query: Temple Grandin is a biographical film from 2010.

positive: Temple Grandin (film) Temple Grandin is a 2010 biopic directed by Mick Jackson and starring Claire Danes as Temple Grandin , an autistic woman who revolutionized practices for the humane handling of livestock on cattle ranches and slaughterhouses .

positive: Biographical film A biographical film , or biopic ( -LSB- ˈbaɪəʊpɪk -RSB- abbreviation for biographical motion picture ) , is a film that dramatizes the life of a non-fictional or historically-based person or people . Such films show the life of a historical person and the central character 's real name is used . They differ from films `` based on a true story '' or `` historical drama films '' in that they attempt to comprehensively tell a single person 's life story or at least the most historically important years of their lives .   Because the figures portrayed are actual people , whose actions and characteristics are known to the public ( or at least historically documented ) , biopic roles are considered some of the most demanding of actors and actresses . Ben Kingsley , Johnny Depp , Jim Carrey , and Jamie Foxx all gained new-found respect as dramatic actors after starring in biopics : Ben Kingsley as Mahatma Gandhi in Gandhi ( 1982 ) , Depp as Ed Wood in Ed Wood ( 1994 ) , Carrey as Andy Kaufman in Man on the Moon ( 1999 ) , and Foxx as Ray Charles in Ray ( 2004 ) .   In rare cases , sometimes called auto biopics , the subject of the film plays himself or herself : Jackie Robinson in The Jackie Robinson Story ; Muhammad Ali in The Greatest ; Audie Murphy in To Hell and Back ; Patty Duke in Call Me Anna ; Bob Mathias in The Bob Mathias Story , Arlo Guthrie in Alice 's Restaurant ; and Howard Stern in Private Parts .   Biopic scholars include George F. Custen of the College of Staten Island and Dennis P. Bingham of Indiana University -- Purdue University Indianapolis . Custen , in Bio/Pics : How Hollywood Constructed Public History ( 1992 ) , regards the genre as having died with the Hollywood studio era , and in particular , Darryl F. Zanuck . On the other hand , Bingham 's 2010 study Whose Lives Are They Anyway ? The Biopic as Contemporary Film Genre shows how it perpetuates as a codified genre using many of the same tropes used in the studio era that has followed a similar trajectory as that shown by Rick Altman in his study , Film/Genre . Bingham also addresses the male biopic and the female biopic as distinct genres from each other , the former generally dealing with great accomplishments , the latter generally dealing with female victimization . Ellen Cheshire 's Bio-Pics : a life in pictures ( 2014 ) examines UK/US films from the 1990s and 2000s . Each chapter reviews key films linked by profession and concludes with further viewing list . Christopher Robé has also written on the gender norms that underlie the biopic in his article , `` Taking Hollywood Back '' in the 2009 issue of Cinema Journal . Roger Ebert defended The Hurricane and distortions in biographical films in general , stating `` those who seek the truth about a man from the film of his life might as well seek it from his loving grandmother . ... The Hurricane is not a documentary but a parable . ''   Some biopics purposely stretch the truth . Confessions of a Dangerous Mind was based on game show host Chuck Barris ' widely debunked yet popular memoir of the same name , in which he claimed to be a CIA agent . Kafka incorporated both the life of author Franz Kafka and the surreal aspects of his fiction . The Errol Flynn film They Died with Their Boots On tells the story of Custer but is highly romanticized . The Oliver Stone film The Doors , mainly about Jim Morrison , was highly praised for the similarities between Jim Morrison and actor Val Kilmer , look-wise and singing-wise , but fans and band members did not like the way Oliver Stone portrayed Jim Morrison , and a few of the scenes were even completely made up .   Casting can be controversial for biographical films . Casting is often a balance between similarity in looks and ability to portray the characteristics of the person . Anthony Hopkins felt that he should not have played Richard Nixon in Nixon because of a lack of resemblance between the two . The casting of John Wayne as Genghis Khan in The Conqueror was objected to because of the American Wayne being cast as the Mongol warlord . Egyptian critics criticized the casting of Louis Gossett , Jr. , an African American actor , as Egyptian president Anwar Sadat in the 1982 TV miniseries Sadat . Also , some objected to the casting of Jennifer Lopez in Selena because she is a New York City native of Puerto Rican descent while Selena was Mexican-American .

negative: Grand Opera House (Wilmington, Delaware) The Grand Opera House , also known as The Grand or Masonic Hall and Grand Theater , is a 1,208-seat theater for the performing arts in Wilmington , Delaware . The four-story building was built in 1871 by the Delaware Grand Lodge of Masons to serve as a Masonic Temple and auditorium . The construction cost was $ 100,000 . It was designed in Second Empire style by Baltimore architect Thomas Dixon and incorporates symbolism from Freemasonry into the cast-iron facade . Its central pediment contains an Eye of Providence .   Historically , the Grand hosted a variety of operas , symphonies , Victorian melodramas , minstrel shows , burlesque , vaudeville , and other exhibitions , including performers such as Ethel Barrymore , `` Buffalo Bill '' Cody and John Philip Sousa . For most of the twentieth century the Grand was operated exclusively as a movie theater , run by Warner Brothers from 1930 and eventually closing in 1967 . It was reopened four years later and returned to programming emphasizing classical music , partnering with the Delaware Symphony Orchestra , OperaDelaware , and the First State Ballet Theatre .   It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 with assertions of both architectural and historical significance . It was argued it is `` one of the finest remaining examples of 19th century cast iron architecture in America '' and that it has important association with events and persons in Delaware 's history .   In 1973 , management was turned over to a non-profit organization and the building underwent extensive restoration , which was completed in 1976 .

negative: Heaven's Gate (film) Heaven 's Gate is a 1980 American epic Western film written and directed by Michael Cimino . Loosely based on the Johnson County War , it portrays a fictional dispute between land barons and European immigrants in Wyoming in the 1890s . The film features an ensemble cast , including Kris Kristofferson , Christopher Walken , Isabelle Huppert , Jeff Bridges , John Hurt , Sam Waterston , Brad Dourif , Joseph Cotten , Geoffrey Lewis , David Mansfield , Richard Masur , Terry O'Quinn , Mickey Rourke , Willem Dafoe and Nicholas Woodeson , the last two in their first film roles . It is generally considered one of the biggest box office bombs of all time , and was initially described as one of the worst films ever made .   There were major setbacks in the film 's production due to cost and time overruns , negative press ( including allegations of animal abuse on-set ) , and rumors about Cimino 's allegedly overbearing directorial style ; the film resultantly opened to poor reviews , earning only $ 3.5 million domestically ( from an estimated $ 44 million budget ) , eventually causing its parent studio , United Artists , to collapse , and effectively destroying the reputation of its director , Cimino , previously a rising Hollywood auteur from the success of his 1978 film The Deer Hunter , winner of the Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Director in 1979 . Cimino had an expensive and ambitious vision for the film , pushing it nearly four times over its planned budget . Its resulting financial problems and United Artists ' consequent demise led to a move away from the brief 1970s period of director-driven film production in the American film industry , back towards greater studio control of films , as had been predominant in Hollywood until the late 1960s .   In the decades since the release however , general assessment of Heaven 's Gate has become more positive , with some critics now describing Heaven 's Gate as a `` modern masterpiece '' . The reception of the 1980 re-edit after poor test screenings has later been characterized as `` one of the greatest injustices of cinematic history '' . The BBC ranked Heaven 's Gate 98th on their 100 greatest American films of all-time list .
