About This Collection

The Lycoming College Campus - Past and Present collection is an exhibit of photographs depicting the buildings and grounds of the campus from its earliest days as the Williamsport Academy to the present Lycoming College campus. An effort has been made to show the transformation of the campus through the years, respecting the legacies of the past and acknowledging the changes that the future requires. This collection also honors the individuals from whom several of the buildings were named, by displaying their photographs, if possible, and short summaries of their significance in the lives of their families, their communities, and the college.

View of the construction of an almost-completed Rich Hall, from the back of the building looking northwest. Rich Hall was built as a women's dormitory in 1948 in response to the campus population increase following World War II. Living quarters for male students were in Old Main and Bradley Hall. Rich Hall was named in honor of the Rich family, who were benefactors of the college. The date 'Sept. 18, 1948' is written on the mat of the photo.
