Susquehanna University - 1950 to 1959

Bogar Hall was built in 1951. It was named after alumnus Jerry Bogar and his son Guy Bogar. It housed the school's humanities programs, but mostly business programs were held in the building. Because of Bogar Hall's curvy stage entrance stairway, located at the main entrance, outdoor graduation exercises were held there throughout the 1950s.

In 1858, Susquehanna University (Missionary Institute) started with one building, Selinsgrove Hall. The physical expansion of the campus continues over the years. From the pages of the 1952 Lanthorn, a map showing the current and future sites of campus buildings was drawn. Notice, at that time, tennis courts were separated for the men and women.

In 1950, the first woman to ever compete on Susquehanna University's Men's Tennis team was Barbara Stagg. The team was coached by her father, Amos Stagg Jr.
