Ingersoll Extension

Ingersoll Extension was built and occupied during the expansion of the campus in the early 1970's. It is connected to Ingersoll Hall and over looks the Lily Pond. Today it houses various offices and programs, classrooms and the Departments of Biology and Chemistry.

Look around for yourself.

The Lily Pond

The Lily Pond Outside the entrance to the Ingersoll Extension is a quiet, garden area with a reflective lily pond which is regularly used by students and faculty on warm summer days. Benches around the pond attract devoted lunch time diners, who sun themselves and eat their sandwiches in a sheltered spot away from the main campus traffic and the louder areas of the main quadrangle.

Lecture Room
