A New Home For a New Millennium
Vol. 29 (2000)On the Cover:
The Wittenberg University History Department has been housed in four other buildings, prior to moving to Hollenbeck Hall in the winter of 1999. Pictured on the front cover are the five buildings in which the History Department has made its home.
Myers Hall (1845 86) - Myers was the original building of Wittenberg University. It housed classrooms and dormitories for students and faculty.
Recitation Hall (1886-1963) - Recitation Hall was built through money donated by residents of the city of Springfield; the University had outgrown Myers as its only structure.
Zimmerman Hall (1963-78) - Zimmerman became the stomping ground for history majors after the elimination of the home economics program, which was formerly housed here.
Ermarth Center for the Humanities (1978-99) - Synod and Learner Halls, which make up the Ermarth Center for the Humanities, became the home of the history department after the departure of the Hamma Divinity School from Wittenberg. The school is now located in Columbus, Ohio, in consolidation with Capital University.
Hollenbeck Hall (2000) - Wittenberg's first freestanding academic building in more than thirty years was dedicated January 28, 2000. The building houses the departments of history, philosophy, religion, political science, English, and foreign languages, as well as the East Asian and Russian Area studies programs. The Math and Writer's Workshops and the International Education office also make their home in Hollenbeck.
