THE FIRST FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY IN THE UNITED STATES
he King William School was established in 1696 by an act of the
era! Assembly of Maryland for "Propagation of the Gospel and the
Bucation of the Youth of this Province in Good Letters and Manners."
Thomas Bray, named Commissary of Maryland in 1696, felt that the clergy in
Maryland could not hope to visit and instruct all members of rural colonial
parishes, and he hoped that the provision of parochial libraries might ease this
deficiency. The "Bray Libraries" were to be given into the care of the members
of the clergy for the use of the parishes. A £400 gift of Princess Ann of
Denmark, for whom Annapolis was named, enabled the purchase of 1,095
volumes for the Annapolitan Bray Library, the first of the provincial libraries.
Both the establishment of the King William School by the civil authorities
and the Bray Library by the Anglican Church indicate the need felt in the
colonies for education in philosophical and spiritual matters. * The first
volumes arrived in Annapolis in 1697, the last in 1700. After fires in the
buildings that housed the collection, the libra1y was moved to the King
William School in 1704. In 1720, the Bray Books were transferred to the new
state house, and sometime in the second half of the century they were
returned to the King William School. * When St. John's College
commenced in 1784, the masters and students of the old King William School
joined the inaugural procession, and the property and endowment of the early
school- including the Bray Books- were conveyed to the new college. * Since
this early beginning, the college collection has grown- sometimes vigorously,
sometimes hardly at all- reflecting the fortunes of education in the country at
large. Since its arrival on the St. John's College campus, the library has moved
to McDowell Hall, Humphreys,
Woodward Hall, Mellon,
Woodward Hall, and now,
some 90,000 volumes strong,
to the new library. The new
Greenfield Library assures us
that 300 years of liberal
education through books will
continue long into the
20th century.

HALL 0 F
RECORDS
New Life for an Historic Building
n 1934 St. John's College deeded a section on the southwest corner of
campus to the State of Maryland for $10. The State constructed the first
state archive depository in the nation, the Maryland Hall of Records, on this
site. The Hall of Records commemorates the 300th anniversary of the state's
founding in 1634 and has a finely detailed interior with symbols of Maryland
carved in raised wood panels. Laurence Hall Fowler, a noted Baltimore
architect, designed the building in a Georgian Revival style to complement
the 18th and 19th century architecture of the St. John's College campus. * In
1986 Matyland's state archives moved to a new building on Rowe Boulevard.
The Maryland Board of Public Works approved the sale of the Hall of Records
in 1993 and St. John's College formally acquired the building in 1994.
Renovations were completed in 1996, the 300th anniversary of the founding
of St. John's College as King William's School and of Dr. Bray's library, the
oldest free public library in the United States and the origin of the St. John's
College library.

McDowell Hall began as the grandiose dream house of
Maryland's colonial governor, Thomas Bladen, in 1742. Originally conceived
to have a central section with a wing on either side, the building soon proved
to be too expensive for the colony to complete. Roofless, its unfinished walls
exposed to the elements, the hulk which became known as Bladen's Folly sat
for more than 40 years before the site was given to a new college- St. John's
College- chartered in the new state of Maryland in 1784.
Reconstruction
of the building was completed in 1789, and the first students from King
William's School and the College moved in. The building served as dormitory,
library, dining hall, and classroom space until 1837 when a second College
building was constructed. McDowell Hall is named after John McDowell, the
first President of St. John's College. It is the third oldest academic building in
continuous use in the United States.

HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE
AT ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE
�HISfORICALAND ARCHITECTURAL NOTES
AN HISTORIC VIEW OF THE CAMPUS
S
t. John's College traces its
origins to King William's
School, founded in 1696 in
Annapolis. The present site of
the college was proposed as
early as 1761 by, among others,
Charles Carroll, the Barrister,
whose house now stands on
campus. When St. John's was
chartered in 1784 to perpetuate a succession of able and honest men, it
was with a view also to its being the western branch of the University of
Maryland, with Washington College on the Eastern Shore as the eastern
branch. Four of the college founders were signers of the Declaration of
Independence: Charles Carroll of Carrollton, Governor William Paca,
Thomas Stone, and Samuel Chase. Chase and Stone were members of
the first Board of Visitors and Governors. The richest man in the country at the time, Carroll was not a member of the original board but did
join it in 1786. He contributed the largest sum to the founding of the
college - 200 pounds. To assure that St. John's would be for the benefit
of youth of every religious denomination, the charter was written by
three clergymen of different faiths : William Smith, an Episcopalian and
St. John's first president pro tern; John Carroll, a Roman Catholic; and
Patrick Allison, a Presbyterian divine, representing other religious
sects. When St. John's began classes in 1789, the college absorbed the
property of King William's School and all the students attended the college. Among the first students were George Washington's step-grandson
and two nephews. Francis Scott Key was also an early student, graduating in 1796. During the Civil War, the northern forces used the campus
first as a parole center for the exchange of prisoners and then as a hospital. The college became a military school in 1884, resumed its liberal
arts program in 1923, andin 1937 adopted its New Program centered on
the reading and discussion of great books. In 1951 the college became
co-educational. St. John's opened a second campus in Santa Fe, New
Mexico, in 1964. The Annapolis campus is a National Historic
Landmark and lies within the Annapolis Historic District.
CHANCELLOR JOHNSON HOUSE
(CIRCA 1720)
A fine example of an early 18th century gambrel roofed dwelling, the Chancellor Johnson
House was moved to the campus in 1937
after being purchased by the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Company, which needed
its location on Northwest Street to make
room for projected offices. The house is
named for John Johnson, an alumnus of the
class of 1820 who at one time owned the
property on which the house stood but lived
with his family in a larger brick house
fronting West Street. Johnson was the last
chancellor of the state of Maryland, a
position abolished in 1851.
CHARLES CARROLL,
THE BARRISTER HOUSE (1722-23)
The Carroll Barrister House was built by
Charles Carroll, the surgeon, and moved by
Historic Annapolis in 1955 from its location
on Main Street to the St. John' s campus.
Carroll's son, Charles Carroll, the Barrister,
born in the house in 1724, was the principal
writer for the Declaration of the Delegates of
Maryland adopted on July 6, 1776. A member
of the board of King William's School,
Carroll introduced a conciliatory bill in 1761
that repeated a recommendation that
Bladen's Folly, now McDowell Hall, be used
as the site of a new college. Portraits in the
reception room are those of a former mayor
of Annapolis, Thomas Jennings, and his wife.
The college offices of Admissions and
Advancement are now located in the house.
MCDOWELL HALL (1742)
Simon Duff, a Scotsman, came to Maryland
especially to construct this building as the
official mansion of Thomas Bladen, colonial
governor of Maryland. Begun in 1742, it was
abandoned as being too grandiose and
became known as Bladen's Folly. It was originally designed with wings, in the style of
James Gibbs work. Thomas Jefferson
admired the unfinished building, writing in
1766: "They have no public building worth
mentioning except the governor's house, the
hull of which after being finished, they have
suffered to go to ruin."
After being completed as the first (and only)
college building in 1789, it held classrooms
on the first and second floors, student sleeping quarters and faculty rooms on the third
floor, and the kitchen and dining room in the
basement. Here Francis Scott Key, who graduated as class valedictorian and later helped
organize the alumni association, attended
classes. In 1824 two dinners and a ball were
given in the Great Hall for General Lafayette.
The Great Hall also served as headquarters of
the Union Army Medical Corps from 1863 to
1866 . Almost destroyed by fire in 1909,
McDowell was rebuilt according to its original 1789 design . The building is named for
St. John's first president, John McDowell.
HUMPHREYS HALL ( 1837)
The first building added to St. John's was
Humphreys Hall, named for the Rev. Hector
Humphreys, president from 1831 to 1857. It
is an excellent example of castellated Gothic
Revival, notable for its octagonal towers at
the comers. Known initially as the boarding
house, Humphreys first was used as a dormitory and later as a science hall. In 1958 the
interior was remodeled as a dormitory. The
college bookshop in the basement displays
the original center support of the building, a
foundation wall of brick culminating in a row
of round-headed arches.
CHASE-STONE HOUSE (1857)
Built at the end of the classical revival period
and at the beginning of America's Victorian
era, the Chase-Stone House is considered to be
in the style of a Florentine palace. It was used
originally as a duplex residence for the president and vice-president of the college. Since
then it has served as a dormitory. In 1963 it was
completely renovated. The building is named
for Samuel Chase and Thomas Stone, members of the college's original Board of
Governors and two of the four Maryland signers of the Declaration oflndependence.
PACA-CARROLL HOUSE (1857)
Although the Paca-Carroll House was built
early in the Victorian era as another duplex
to serve two faculty families, the house is a
simple, well-proportioned building reminiscent of the Federal era. It was named for two
signers of the Declaration oflndependence:
William Paca, who was among those petitioning the General Assembly for the college
charter, and Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, a
member of St. John's first board. James Cain,
the American novelist, whose father taught
at St. John's, was born in Paca-Carroll in
1892. In this century it became a student
dormitory, which was enlarged in 1981 when
a contemporary wing was added and the original section was gutted and rebuilt.
PINKNEY HALL ( 1858)
Dedicated in 1858 as a dormitory, this building with Italianate overtones was named for
William Pinkney (1764-1822), the only pupil
of King William's School that historians
have been able to identify. Pinkney served as
minister to England and Russia and as
Attorney General under Madison. Like
Humphreys Hall, Pinkney' s roofline was
once fretted with turrets.
BARR-BUCHANAN CENTER
(1899)
This building, known as Woodward Hall, was
constructed to serve as the college library. In
19 68 it was extensively renovated; the rear of
the building was extended and a fourth level
added below ground. After the college
library collection became too large for
Woodward Hall and was moved to the
Greenfield Library, the building was remodeled and rededicated as the Barr Buchanan
Center in 1997. It is named for Stringfellow
Barr and Scott Buchanan, the founders of the
New Program established in 1937. The BarrBuchanan Center contains offices for the
Graduate Institute, classrooms, common
rooms, the King William Room, a computer
lab, and tutor offices.
RANDALL HALL ( 1903)
Randall Hall was named for the Randall family. Its neo-classical Edgar T. Higgins dining
room, with high Georgian details, is considered one of the handsomest rooms in
Annapolis . A 1930 addition houses a modern
kitchen and serving area as well as a small
private dining room. The upper floors of
Randall are used as a dormitory.
IGLEHART HALL-(1910)
The college gymnasium is named for Lt. E.
Berkeley Iglehart, an alumnus who had a distinguished military career and who helped
make the building a reality. Its suspended running track is considered a rarity for its day.
BENEFICIAL-HODSON
BOATHOUSE ( 1934)
Constructed in 1934 and renovated in 1989,
the building houses a large upstairs room
used for college functions and parties. Below
is a spacious boathouse where the college
boats used in the rowing, crew, and sailing
programs are kept.
GREENFIELD LIBRARY
(1934, 1996)
The building originally known as the
Maryland Hall of Records was constructed in
1934 on land deeded to the state by St. John's
for $10. Designed by Baltimore architect
Lawrence Hall Fowler, the Georgian Revival
style Hall of Records contained a core of
seven stories housing the state archives and
perimeter rooms that reflected different
periods with architectural details based on
Maryland history. The conversion to a library
for the college, begun in 1994 and completed
in 1996, involved adding an underground
annex topped by a landscaped plaza; gutting
the central core and replacing it with a threestory atrium lit from above by a large skylight; and restoring the perimeter rooms .
The renovated building was named the
Greenfield Library, in honor of the support
of Stewart Greenfield (St. John's class of
1951) and his wife Constance. It houses the
college library collection, which numbers
100,000 volumes.
CAMPBELL HALL ( 1954)
Designed in a modified Georgian style,
Campbell Hall was built as a dormitory for
women students, first admitted in 1951. It
was named for Levin Hicks Campbell, a
member of the class of 1793 whose descendant Milton Campbell contributed funds for
the construction.
FRANCIS SCOTT KEY
AUDITORIUM AND MELLON
HALL (1958)
Designed by the California firm of Neutra
and Alexander, this building contains the
600-seat Francis Scott Key Auditorium,
Conversation Room, music library, music
and laboratory classrooms, and administrative offices (added in 1989). The auditorium
was named for St. John's most famous alumnus; the building was named for Paul Mellon,
a student at the college in 1940 and a generous benefactor. The building also houses an
observatory and the Theodore McKeldin
planetarium. President Eisenhower dedicated the complex in 1958.
HARRISON HEALTH CENTER
( 1972)
Constructed in the shape of a Greek cross, the
infirmary is designed to live quietly by the
Carroll Barrister House, its 18th century
neighbor. The building, named for John T.
Harrison, class of 1907, was funded for the
college by his widow.
ELIZABETH MYERS MITCHELL
ART GALLERY ( 1989)
The contemporary glass and limestone block
gallery enables the college to offer museum
quality traveling exhibits and special programs related to the arts.

AWAL
S!JOHN'S COLLEGE
Alflf.l.POLII •IA.RT.A. I'll
�About St. John's College
t. John?s College is best known for its New
Program-the curriculum centered on the
reading and discussion of the great books
of Western civilization from the works of Plato
and Aristotle to those of Einstein and Faulkner.
However, the college is also one of the oldest
colleges in the United States, tracing its origins
to r696, when it opened as King William's
School in the brand-new capital of Annapolis.
The school, similar in concept to today's prep
school, was folded into St. John?s College in
r784 when the college was chartered by the
State of Maryland. For the next r50 years,
St. John?s at times was a thriving institution
and at other times struggled-through wars? low
enrollment, the r929 stock market crash, and
what might have been the final blow, the loss of
accreditation. Bythe mid-r93os, the college was
in danger of closing for good.
S
In an effort to save St. John?s, the college?s
board hired Stringfellow Barr and Scott
Buchanan, two academics with revolutionary
educational ideas, to revamp the curriculum.
The pair implemented the New Program, a
cohesive, interdisciplinary course of studywith
the great books as its foundation. In r964, a
second campus was established, in Santa Fe,
New Mexico. Today, the New Program still
thrives, as does St. J ohn?s College, one of the
nation?s most distinctive institutions of higher
education.
Begin your self-guided tour of St. ]ohn 's College
on College Avenue, at the replica of the
Liberty Bell.
�1
Liberty Bell (I952)
The U.S. Department of the Treasury cast
48 replicas of the Liberty Bell (one for each of
the states that had by then entered the union)
in Ig52. The Annapolis Chamber of Commerce
installed this replica on the campus. At its
dedication, local business leader John M.
Whitmore said, "St. John's College, just as the
bell, is symbolic of liberty and of man's
constant battle to become and to remain free."
All St. John?s students read the founding
documents of the nation, including the
Constitution~ Declaration of Independence~
and the Federalist Papers.
2
Alumni Memorial Tablet (I920)
Four hundred and fifty-two St. John's
College alumni fought in World War I. This
tablet honors the 24 who died in the war. The
nation's firstArmyROTC unitwas formedat
St. John's inI9I7. OnlyWestPointhadmore
alumni serving as officers in the war.
Next Stop: Continue up the path to
McDowell Hall.
3 McDowell Hall
(c.1744)
In I742, Maryland Governor Thomas
Bladen began to build a grand Georgian
mansion with a symmetrical facade on this
elevated site. When the profligate Bladen ran
afoul of the colonial assembly, construction
stopped abruptly at the second-floor level. The
unfinished shell became known as "Bladen's
Folly." After the American Revolution, the
new State of Maryland chartered St. John's
�TUE BAR.R-BUCHANAN CENTER/WOODWAUD HAU,
College in I784 and gave the school the unfinished building and surrounding four acres.
Two years later Joseph Clark, architect of the
State House dome, was hired to complete the
building. He added a third floor, cupola, and
bell tower. The building was named for John
McDowell, the college's first principal.
McDowell Hall housed the entire college for
manyyears: classrooms, dormitory, lecture
hall, grammar school, laboratory, and library.
After a devastating fire in Igog, the building
was reconstructed to its original specifications, a preservation victory for alumni.
The Seneca stone porch on the building's east
side was added in Igo3.
In a r766 letter? Thomas Jefferson referred to
McDowell Hall as "the one publfo building
worth mentioning,' in the city of Annapolis.
Nea;t Stop: Walk east to the Barr-Buchanan
Center/Woodward Hall.
�The Bar:rMBuchanan
4 Cente1·/WoodwardHall (I899)
1
Along with Randall Hall? Woodward Hall was
one of two buildings added to the campus after
the Civil War. Duringthewar? St. John's
College was taken over by the Union Army,
first as the site of a camp for paroled prisoners?
and later, as a military hospital. At the war's
end? the campus and its buildings were in a
sorry state. The Maryland Assembly gave the
college a small grant to begin repairs? but the
college had to borrow more to repair the
damage and soon found itself burdened with
debt. James T. Woodward, a New York banker,
assumed the college's mortgage at favorable
terms and made other generous gifts to the
college. In gratitude, the college named its
first post-war building after his father,
Henry Williams Woodward.
Woodward Hall, designed by T. Henry Randall,
architect of Baltimore's Lyric Opera House,
was built to house the library; the physics?
chemistry, and biology labs; and the armory.
When the library outgrew Woodward Hall in
Igg6, the buildingwas renovated and rededicated as the Barr-Buchanan Center to honor
the founders of the New Program. The
building now houses the Graduate Institute.
Ne<1;t Stop: Walk to the left of the BarrBuchanan Center to the Chase-Stone House.
Long-time Annapolitans still miss the Liberty
Tree? a tulip poplar that stood on the front
lavv-n of the St. John?s campus for about 400
years. It was under the Libertyrrree's branches
that the Sons of Liberty met to hear Samuel
Chase and other patriot~orators argue for
American independence from Great Britain.
The majestic tree succumbed to age and
weather in I999~ when the college was forced to
have it taken down.
�5 Chase-Stone House
(I857)
Chase-Stone House is named after
Samuel Chase and Thomas Stone, two of
Maryland's four signers of the Declaration
of Independence, who were members of the
college's first board of directors. Italianate in
style, the Chase-Stone House was originally
a duplex that housed the families of the
president and vice-president. Modeled after a
Florentine palace, Chase-Stone was built at the
end of the Classical Revival period.
The building became a fraternity house in Ig29
and remained so for a decade. After President
Stringfellow Barr discontinued fraternities in
Ig38, Chase-Stone became a dormitory.
Next stop: Head back toward the center of
campus to Pinkney Hall, on the east side of
McDowell Hall.
6 Pinkney Hall
(I858)
St. John's College has manyillustrious
alumni, among them senators, governors,
state legislators, and diplomats. George
Washington sent his step-grandson and
nephews here; Francis Scott Key was a I796
graduate of the college. The only historical
figure who can be traced to the original King
William's School is William Pinkney, who
served as Attorney General under President
Jam es Madison, as well as minister to both
England and Russia.
The building wasn't occupied until after the
Civil War, when the student population began
to rebound. The building was designed by
N.G. Starkweather to complement Humphreys
Hall, on the opposite side of the quad, and
complete the "Yale Row" that is a distinctive
�feature of the campus. Renovated in Ig42,
Pinkneynowhouses dormitoryrooms and
administrative offices.
The cannon between Pinkney and McDowell
Hall is from the War of I8I2 and was dredged
out of the Baltimore Harborwi.th I2 others.
Netct stop: Just west of Pinkney is Randall Hall.
7 Randall Hall (I903)
Randall Hall combines Renaissance,
Baroque, and Georgian styles into Beaux Arts
style. Before a Ig8o renovation, dinner was
served on monogrammed plates by bow-tied
student waiters. Namedafter alumnus John
Wirt Randall, a local attorney, member of the
Maryland State Senate, and member of the
college's board, the building now houses dorm
rooms, the dining hall and kitchen, and
administrative offices.

�CAau.ou~ BAn.HIS'r.En Hous.E
On the southern side of Randall Hall, facing
College Avenue, is a rose garden named for
long-time college bookkeeper Ruth Sutphin.
Next Stop: Walk north on the path that winds
around the back of Randall to the Harrison
Health Center.
8
Harrison Health Cente1~ (I972)
Annapolis architect Jam es Wood Burch
was praised for designing this building to
blend seamlesslywith the college's historic
architecture. The health center is in the shape
of a Greek Cross, the same shape used as the
Red Cross symbol.
Ne.1:t stop: Walk toward King George Street to
the Carroll Barrister House.
�9 Carroll Barrister House (c.
:r724)
One of the oldest surviving residences in
Annapolis, this building was home to Charles
Carroll the Barrister (so called to distinguish
him from the other wealthy and important
Carrolls of Maryland). The house was originally located at the corner of Main and
Conduit streets. In I955 when the building
was in danger of being torn down for commercial development, local preservationists raised
the money to move the building. Carefully
separated from the oyster-shell mortar that
held it in place, the T-shaped house was
divided into two sections, and the main block
was rolled to the St. John's campus on a flatbed
truck. The building was meticulously restored
by the college.
Directly behind the house sits a fragrant
boxwood garden, dedicated in Ig84 to the late
Kate Moore Myers, a St. John's benefactor.
Next stop: Return to the front of the Carroll
Barrister House and, crossing the walkway,
you'll see Iglehart Hall, the college
gymnasium.
1QIglehartHall
(I9Io)
The building that houses the college's
gymnasium was named for alumnus
Lt. E. Berkeley Iglehart, a distinguished army
officer. While the New Program brought
an end to most intercollegiate athletics
(President Barr objected to the disruptive
nature of such programs), the college boasts
a thriving intramural program. Iglehart Hall
houses a basketball court, weight room,
dance studio, locker rooms, and a suspended,
banked wooden track.
�Next stop: From the north side of the gym
parking lot, follow the path past the tennis
courts to the French Monument and Hodson
Boathouse.
11 French Monument
(Ign)
When the French were marching
through Annapolis on their way to the pivotal
Battle of Yorktown in I78I, several soldiers
died here and were buried on campus, near
College Creek. The monument was erected in
their honor. No one knows howmanysoldiers
were buried here or who theywere, but the
monument stands as one of the first
memorials in the country to the unknown
dead.
Present at the unveiling of the French
Monument:
President Taft
French Ambassador Jean J ]usserand
Descendants ofLafayette and de Grasse
RANDALL DINING HALL
�12 Hodson Boathouse (:r934)
This Adirondack-style building was
constructed in r934 and renovated in r989.
On the main floor of the boathouse is an allpurpose room. The lower level houses boats
used by the college's crew team, which takes
part in intercollegiate regattas. Several boats
are named for well-loved faculty members and
other prominent college figures.
Crew, fencing, croquet, and sailing are the only
intercollegiate sports at St. John?s College.
Ne:i;t stop: On your way back up the path to the
main part of campus, you'll see Gilliam and
Spector halls on your right.
Gilliam
Hall
13 Spector Hall
(2004) and
(2005)
These two modern dormitories were the first
built on campus since the completion of
Campbell Hall. Gilliam Hall is named for
James H. Gilliam, Jr., an African-American
businessman, civic leader, and philanthropist,
who was a trustee of The Hodson Trust.
The Trust provided generous support for the
dormitory. Spector Hall is named for Philip
Spector, the father of Warren Spector, a rg8r
graduate of the college and President and Cochief Operating Officer of Bear, Stearns & Co.
Inc. Mr. Spector's gift to the college made
construction of the dormitory possible.
Designed by the Baltimore firm ofZiger/
Snead, the two buildings draw from the
historic architecture of the upper campus,
but also are clearly contemporary. They feature
modern geothermal heating and cooling
systems.
Next stop: Cross the campus to Mellon Hall.
�14
Mellon Hall/ F1·ancis Scott Key
Auditorium (I958)
Mellon Hall is named in honor of Paul Mellon,
a philanthropist, the heir to the Andrew
Mellon banking fortune, and a student at
St. John's for one year before he joined the
service during World War II. The building was
designed by Austrian-born architect Richard
Neutra, a protegee of Frank Lloyd Wright, and
a leading proponent of the Modern Movement.
Most of Neutra's work was in the West, principally California. Mellon Hall is one of only
three of his surviving buildings east of the
Mississippi. Two later additions created an
administrative wing and the Elizabeth Myers
Mitchell Art Gallery. In 2002, a
renovation/expansion project added classrooms, a new conference room, pottery studio,
and faculty offices.
The Francis Scott Key Auditorium is a venue
for lectures, concerts, plays, film series, and
community events.
As you leave Mellon Hall andhead back toward
front campus, take the brick steps leading up
to the quad and you'll see the New Program
Seal in the landing. The Latin words are Facio
Liberos Ex Liberis Libris Libraque, translated
as, "I make free adults out of children by
means of a book and a balance."
Ne.1;t stop: Continue up the steps, turn to your
right, and you'll see Campbell Hall.
15
Campbell Hall (I954)
After 250 years as an all-male school,
St. John's admitted its first class of women in
Ig5I. The Colonial Revival-style Campbell Hall
was built as a women's dorm and opened in
Ig54. Although the decision to go co-ed
�THE LJBER'fY TUEE
sparked some campus protests, the first class
of 25 women surprised their male counterparts by succeeding admirably in their math
and science work as well as in philosophy,
literature, and all other parts of the program.
Next stop: Follow one of the paths on your
right leading to the parking lot behind
Campbell to visit some of the oldest buildings
on campus.
�16
Chancellor Johnson House
(c. I720)
Also known as the Reverdy Johnson house,
this gambrel-roofhouse, a fine example of
earlyI8th-century-style Colonial homes, was
originally built at g Northwest Street as the
home of Allen Quynn, a mayor of Annapolis.
John Johnson, Jr., an I82I alumnus, bought
the house in Ig3I. Johnson served as
Chancellor of Maryland from I846 until I85I,
when the position was abolished. The house
remained in the Johnson family until IgI7,
then changed hands several times before
ending up as the property of the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company. The
company planned to raze the dwelling for an
expansion, but the college joined a group of
budding historic preservationists and had the
house moved to the campus in Ig37.
Ne:;r;t stop: Directly south of the Chancellor
Johnson House is the Paca-Carroll House, the
counterpart to the Chase-Stone House.
17 Paca-CarrollHouse
(I857)
Named after two Maryland signers of
the Declaration of Independence, William
Paca and Charles Carroll of Carrollton, PacaCarroll House was built during the same
construction boom that produced Chase-Stone
and Pinkney. Originally a duplex for faculty
housing, this Federal/Greek Revival building
became a fraternity house in Ig29, and was
converted to a dormitory in the late Ig3os.
An addition was completed in Ig8I.
Next stop: Turn back to the front campus
toward Humphreys Hall.
�18
Humphreys Hall (x837)
This Gothic Revival building designed
by noted Baltimore architect Robert Cary
Long, Jr. is distinguished by its octagonal
towers and was an early component of the
college's Yale Row. Named for Hector
Humphreys, one of the longest-serving and
most effective of the college's presidents,
the building housed science laboratories and
dorm rooms during its earlier years. Today,
Humphreys remains a dormitory. The college
bookstore-open to the public-is housed in the
basement.
Next stop: From Humphreys Hall, take the
brick walkway toward the southwestern corner
of campus for the final stop on your walking
tour, the Greenfield Library.
19
Greenfield Library (1:~)34)
St. John's deeded this plot ofland to
the State of Maryland for $IO in I934 for the
Maryland Hall of Records. Baltimore architect
Laurance Hall Fowler designed the Georgian
Revival building that served as the archives
until Ig84, when the state built a new facility
on Rowe Boulevard. The college acquired the
building to house a new library. Travis Price, a
Washington, D.C. architect andI97I alumnus,
designed the renovation. The project involved
adding a basement annex, gutting the central
core, and restoring the perimeter rooms.
In Igg6, classes were canceled for a day so that
students, faculty, and staff could ferry books
across the front campus from the old library
in Woodward Hall to the Greenfield Library,
named for I953 alumnus Stewart Greenfield. :!~
