SUNY College at Brockport Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

The State University of New York at Brockport, also known as SUNY Brockport, Brockport State University or the State University of New York College at Brockport, is a four-year liberal arts college located in Brockport, Monroe County, New York, near Rochester. SUNY Brockport opened as the Brockport Collegiate Institute in 1841, and later became the Brockport State Normal School in 1866. The last Normal School class graduated in 1942 after which the school officially became a college, meaning it could grant the bachelor’s degree. (Normal School graduates received only a certificate of study when they finished, which entitled them to teach in the New York State schools.) This enhancement of status was due in good part to the efforts of President Ernest Hartwell, who, like Malcolm MacVicar and many other Brockport figures, played a leading role in the education movements of the time. Starting as Brockport State Teachers College, the new school was automatically included in the new SUNY system which was established in 1948. When Donald Tower became president of the school in 1944, the entire campus was what we now call Hartwell Hall. The campus had expanded greatly, adding residence halls and a college union, and expanding across Kenyon Street and down Holley Street. In the early years of President Albert Brown (1965-1981), the school’s growth rate built to a height of activity, seeing the high-rise residence halls, library and other buildings rise up to make the campus that one sees today. During his tenure, Brockport’s international education program greatly expanded to become the largest in the SUNY system and among the 10 largest in the U.S. From 1997 to 2004, under the leadership of Paul Yu—working closely with faculty, staff and students—SUNY Brockport achieved new levels of excellence and recognition, from acquiring the latest information technologies to improving campus communications to increasing admissions standards. Allen Administration Building The Allen Building was built in 1973 and named after Gordon F. The Faculty Office Building was one of the major construction projects completed during Brown’s tenure that saw the campus grow with the addition of new library, office, academic, athletic and high-rise residence hall buildings. It houses offices for the deans and associate deans of the School of Letters and Sciences, School of Professions and School of Arts and Performance, as well as faculty offices for 15 academic departments. After 1964 the building was used for office space and other purposes until in 1976 the Alumni Association acquired the building. Benedict Hall Benedict Hall was built in 1965 and named after Edgar Benedict (1905-1990) who was a longtime member of the Board of Trustees (1945-1962). Benedict Hall, along with Gordon, Dobson, and Harmon Halls, is a dormitory complex that was designed to accommodate over 600 students. Benedict Hall currently houses freshmen students only. Bramley Hall Bramley Hall was built in 1968 and named after Herbert Bramley (1867-1945), a longtime member of the Board of Trustees from 1935-1945, and a prominent local business person. Bramley Hall, considered one of the high-rise dormitories along with Briggs, Perry, and Mortimer Halls, is home to upperclass students. Briggs Hall Briggs Hall was built in 1968 and named after Elizabeth Briggs (1885-1965) who was a Campus School teacher and taught history at Brockport from 1910-1943. Briggs Hall is part of the high-rise dormitory complex along with Bramley, Perry, and Mortimer Halls, located at the west end of campus. Brockway Hall Brockway Hall was built in 1966 and named after Hiel Brockway, a co-founder of Brockport, New York who in 1836 donated the land on which Hartwell Hall now stands. Today, the Brockway building serves as a dining hall for mostly freshmen students who live in the traditional styled dormitories. Brockway Hall also houses the parking offices and is where new students can receive their photo identification. Cooper Hall Cooper Hall was built in 1965 and named after Charles Cooper, the head of the “training” school at Brockport from 1911-1936. Cooper Hall was the home to the Campus School, and was designed with elementary students in mind. Dailey Hall Dailey Hall was built in 1967 and named after Vincent Dailey, a Brockport native and the Chairman of the New York State Democratic Party who played a decisive role in obtaining funds for the construction of Hartwell Hall. Dailey Hall was constructed as one of three dining halls during the building boom of the late 1960s. Its centralized location on campus made the building the logical choice for the primary computer facility, and smaller computer labs and staff in Cooper and Drake Library were consolidated into the new Dailey Hall facility. Dobson Hall Dobson Hall was built in 1965 and named after Thomas Dobson (1852-1930) who served on the Board of Trustees from the 1890s until 1930. Dobson Hall, along with Gordon, Benedict, and Harmon Halls, is a dormitory complex that was designed to accommodate over 600 students. Dobson Hall currently houses new freshmen students only. The library she presided over was in the central part of the old Normal School building, and included such things as a “pen writing room,” for writing with the fountain pens of that era – only pencils were allowed in the library proper! In Fall 1939 construction began on the building we know as Hartwell Hall, replacing the old Normal School building. Drake worked in public schools as Supervising Principal or Superintendent of school in New York communities including Celeran, Silver Creek and Babylon. The old building, now named Rakov, serves as home to many of the school’s enrollment and business offices. Edwards Hall Edwards Hall was built in 1968 and named after Aletta Edwards and William Edwards, no relation. She graduated from the former State Normal School at Brockport and received her Bachelor of Philosophy degree from Syracuse University. Edwards Hall is the main lecture hall on campus and holds the Blue Room, the largest instructional room at Brockport. Gordon Hall Gordon Hall was built in 1966 and named after the Ida and Luther Gordon. Gordon Hall, along with Benedict, Dobson, and Harmon Halls, is a dormitory complex that was designed to accommodate over 600 students. Harmon Hall Harmon Hall was built in 1966 and named after George Harmon Jr. Harmon Hall, along with Benedict, Dobson, and Gordon Halls, is a dormitory complex that was designed to accommodate over 600 students. Harmon Hall currently houses incoming transfer students. Harrison Hall Harrison hall was built in 1967 and named after Henry Harrison, a member of the Board of Trustees from 1891-1935 and an active and influential supporter of the school. Hartwell Hall Construction on Hartwell Hall was inititated in 1938, and completed in 1941. Hartwell Hall, a lovely Georgian Colonial style brick building, stands at the historic heart of the campus. As Hartwell Hall was being erected the old building was torn down in stages. At one point students in the old buildings training school wing reached the new building via a wooden gangplank one story up! This building remains today as the Health Center, and is located in between Holmes and Dailey Halls. Holmes Hall Holmes Hall was built in 1967 and named for Daniel and Mary Jane Holmes. Holmes Hall is home to the Psychology and Communications departments, and was the former hub for the Stylus student paper publication. This three level building holds offices, classrooms, and labs and is an important academic building for Brockport students. Lathrop Hall Lathrop Hall was built in 1951 and served as the college union for eighteen years. Lathrop Hall was named after Henry Lathrop, a professor of mathematics at the college from 1912-1935. Lathrop was fondly referred to as “Daddy Lathrop” by his students, and it is in his memory that Lathrop Hall stands. Lennon Hall Lennon Hall was built in 1964 and although currently closed due to renovations, is the permanent home of the science departments and holds many large classrooms and laboratories. The building was named after William Lennon, a Science professor and Vice Principal of the school from 1869-1911. MacVicar Hall MacVicar Hall was built in 1961 and is set up in the traditional dorm style, with a single room shared by two students.

The Normal Schools Act which established four Normal Schools was petitioned to the Legislature by Brockport under the activities of MacVicar. McFarlane Hall McFarlane Hall was built in 1963 and named after Charles McFarlane, the head of the school from 1901-1910. McFarlane Hall serves as a freshman dormitory and was designed in the traditional dorm style, with two students sharing a single room.
