Alumni House

History
The Brockport Alumni Association (BAA) owns the Alumni House, the College's oldest building, located on the front lawn of Hartwell Hall at 75 College Street. A Victorian home, it was built in 1872 by Edward Harrison. Deeded to the state in 1898, it was the home of the school principals from 1889 to 1936 and the College presidents from 1936 to 1964. When Dr. Donald Tower retired as President in 1964, Alumni House became the home to the Department of English for 10 years. Since 1974, when the Alumni Association was given use of the House, it has had a variety of uses. It was a faculty/staff dining facility for a short time and was an office space for the alumni and development offices. In 1984, the state gave the title of the building to the BAA, which still holds the title today.

From 1984 until the present, the House has gone through many major and minor renovations. It is used for BAA committee meetings; special events such as Reunion and Homecoming; college meetings and functions; and events and parties by groups not-affiliated with the BAA or the College.
