3. Clark Hall
Clark Hall is the second-oldest building on campus and the
first for the College of Women, the companion school for Adelbert
College. The Gothic-style brick building, dedicated in 1892,
was designed by Richard Morris Hunt, a New York architect who
also designed the facade of the Metropolitan Museum of Art
and the base of the Statue of Liberty. The building was a gift
from Elisabeth Clark, while the land was donated by Mr. and Mrs. Jeptha H. Wade. Clark Hall was rededicated in 1999 after
receiving a $3.7
million facelift thanks to the generosity of Eric and Jane
Nord and several anonymous donors.
