Situated on 220 acres of woodland and fields, the Williamson campus is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Frank Furness, one of the most highly acclaimed architects of the late 19th century, designed eleven of the college’s buildings. (The college boasts the largest collection of Furness buildings in the country and has received awards from historical societies for its upkeep of these buildings.)
In addition to faculty homes, athletic fields, woods, and streams, the campus boasts a variety of major buildings:
- Rowan Hall houses administrative offices, student lounge, dining room, medical suite, and the chapel
- Sixteen student dormitories: Byers Hall II and III (which also has a recreation room and the College Store), Clemens, Derrickson, Eyre, George, Howley I, II, and III, Jenks, Longstreth, Smith, Strine, Townsend, Watson, and C Cottage.
