Ruskin College

Description
This collection holds items relating to Ruskin College. The college, founded in 1913, grew to have an enrollment of 160 students. It closed its doors following World War I and a disastrous fire that destroyed most of the college in 1918. The building pictured in the thumbnail is the original 1910 structure that once housed the fine and performing arts center. It was also the home of the president, George M. Miller. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
