College Hall 1855- Rutgers the State University of New Jersey
College hall was originally constructed as a private residence by Levi D. Jarrard, a local merchant and political figure, between 1855 and 1860. John Neilson Carpender, a trustee and graduate of Rutgers College purchased the brownstone residence in 1880. In April 1918 the property was leased by Rutgers from the Carpender Family for the newly established College for Women (Noe Douglass College) and became known as College Hall.Through the generosity of Jame Neilson the mansion was soon purchased for the college. During the early years College Hall served as a dormitory, classroom, library, and administrative offices of the College, including the Office of the Dean of Douglass College.
