President's House - Missituk Campus

As the Orne Library building has expanded, the old President’s House, an aging neo-classical affair with substandard plumbing and electrical, was torn down, and a new President’s House was constructed on the site.   The current incarnation of the President’s residence is a large, red-brick neo-Georgian manor-house complete with paved walkway, neatly trimmed hedges, and white Doric columns at the entrance. A two-car garage sometimes houses the President’s luxury sedan. This residence is more often used as a posh overnighter facility for visiting notable guests of the University, such as commencement speakers and trustees. It is also used to host many upscale fundraisers and social events, making use of the back garden, fountain, and sizable rear porch for these occasions. Once a year, two weeks after commencement, a day-long social is hosted here here for all employees of the college.
