Background
Central, as its name implies, was the center of
campus for much of its existence. The first building on campus, it
was originally known as College Hall. It was completed only after
President George Lilley donated 1/3 of his salary ($500.00) to
complete the building. It served the college in every capacity:
dormitory, dining room, library and museum, as well as housing for
classrooms and offices. It was torn down in 1962 to make room for
Shepard Hall.
