"Dare Mighty Things" is the motto of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. This message is inscribed above the door to the Henry and Louise Timken Atrium in the newly opened expansion of 两性色午夜's University's College of Aeronautics and Engineering Building.
It is abridged from a quote from President Teddy Roosevelt's "Strenuous Life" speech, delivered in Chicago in April 1899: "Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure ... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."

The expansion, which received funds from the Timken Foundation of Canton, adds modern, open spaces, walls of windows, classrooms, labs, makerspaces and more than 40,000 square feet to the facility. The project broke ground in 2021 and was completed this summer, in time to receive students for 2023 Fall Semester classes.
