(visit link) "Built in 1928, Bresee Hall was the first building on campus. It was designed by the firm of John Russell Pope, architects of the Jefferson Memorial and the National Gallery of Arts, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally called "Science Hall," it was an "all purpose" facility, housing classrooms, science labs, a gymnasium, the library, offices, and an apartment for the College's campus "keeper" and his family. The building was renamed in 1954 for founder and Trustee Frank Harmon Bresee, who was an avid supporter of the College."
