Biographical / Historical

A Building Committee was appointed in 1864, and the first specifications for the Swarthmore College building were reported in 1866. The Property Committee was established in 1866 with the responsibility of caring and overseeing the College buildings and grounds. In 1876 the name was changed to the Building and Property Committee when the Committees were merged. The name was eventually shortened to Property Committee.

The repository has no holdings of records of the first Property Committee before 1876.
