ITEM 8 · TESTED NEGATIVE — NO INSTITUTION ON THIS GROUND; THE BOUNDARY INSTITUTIONS NAMED
The research-institution test returns a clean negative for this ground: no computing center, wireless institute, nanoelectronics center, or research institution of any kind is or was seated in Osceola or Penn Township in any record reached — not in the record, not in the federal exempt-organizations register the Fairs & Civic leg read whole for this place (seventy-three organizations, the newest a robotics-education studio), and not in the university record. A town whose only school is an elementary school, whose high school is the township corporation's in Mishawaka, does not host research institutions, and the record does not pretend otherwise.
The institutions of the pattern stand ten miles west, and they print here as boundary with their dates, so the checklist's founding-and-dating work is done where the institutions actually are. The Midwest Institute for Nanoelectronics Discovery (MIND) — the Semiconductor Research Corporation's fourth national research center — was located at the University of Notre Dame in 2008, the announcement that set the valley's technology decade running. Notre Dame's wireless and nanoelectronics centers stand with it, on the university's ground in South Bend's build, as does the university's Computing Center of row #572. Each is founded, dated, and carried to its present state in its home build; here they are named once, at boundary size, as the institutions this township's students and engineers commute to — used by this ground, never seated on it.

Schools section (the town's school plant: an elementary school; the high school seated in Mishawaka). Register row #573.
