Franklin College, founded in 1834, was the first coeducational institution in Indiana and the seventh in the nation. Franklin College has grown, physically and ideologically, and has made changes to its campus to support larger numbers and a growing variety of people. These changes in physical appearance include the construction of new buildings such as new dormitories. Ideologically, Franklin grew towards an ideology that offers students the opportunity for greater equality and responsibility. Franklin College commissioned surveys and studies that showed the potential for enrollment growth, and they did. As enrollment increased, Franklin College's campus was becoming too small. Not only did the number of students increase, but these students were different. These students might come from different economic backgrounds, different ages, or different major life choices, and all of these things have shaped the Franklin College campus. This article will cover the infrastructure of Franklin College and will cover some of the changes to the campus and why the changes happened. Most of the information on which this article is based comes from articles found in the Franklin College archives. My archival research began in campus gardens and files. From there I moved on to maps. I received many ideas from Ruth, the archivist, and through the oral history she told me, I was able to put together an argument based on the things I thought stood out among the Franklin College grounds changes. Most of the evidence is dated, but there are a couple of undated maps. The maps can easily be traced back to when they were published based on information gathered from other sources. Another problem that arose during the research came from problems regarding some accurate data...... middle of the document ......ee Edward Street in July." The Franklin, March 16, 1960."
