Flourishing Vassar College Grew Beyond Capacity
Vassar College began the new year with more students than ever, turning away many applicants due to accommodations limits. Raymond House remained the new dormitory, while Rockefeller Hall awaited occupancy. The main building saw repairs, new bath rooms, and refined parlors boosting the campus atmosphere. Phi Beta Kappa granted a charter, signaling rising prestige. Generous donations from Sutro, Tuttle, Coleman, Huntington, and others funded scholarships, a museum collection, and astronomy observatory needs. The Christian Association hosted a reception, with juniors performing tableaux and the Glee Club providing music, as students mingled and celebrated. Vassar College, Oct. 11, 1898.
