History


Wilkes University was first established in 1933 by Bucknell University under the name Bucknell University Junior College (BUJC) in Wilkes-Barre.[6] Frank G. Davis, chair of the Education department at Bucknell, first developed the idea of BUJC and served as an early liaison between BUJC and Bucknell.[7] BUJC attracted many students who were the first members of their families to benefit from higher education as the need for junior colleges arose in urban areas.[3] The college opened in downtown Wilkes-Barre where the first classes were held on the third floor of the Wilkes-Barre Business College building.[3] By 1934, the business college moved out of the building and BUJC had taken it over and continued to grow over the years acquiring old mansions for student housing, classrooms, and administration offices along the streets of South River and South Franklin.[3] By 1945, the Board of Trustees formally moved to develop the junior college into a four-year institution.[8]


In 1947, Wilkes College was instituted as an independent, nondenominational four-year college, with programs in the arts, sciences, and a number of professional fields as well as numerous extracurricular activities.[6] The student body in the post-war period was primarily composed of Luzerne County residents, especially G.I. bill recipients.[7] In the 1950s, increasing numbers of students elected to live on campus, which led to a rapid expansion in on-campus student housing. Increased federal funding for science and engineering in the 1950s led the college to develop academic programs in those areas, build the Stark Learning Center, and increase enrollment.[7]


Wilkes College became Wilkes University in December 1989 and the school officially received university status a month later in January 1990.[4][8]


Wilkes University opened the School of Pharmacy in 1996,[9] and in 1999, through a donation from Mrs. Geraldine Nesbitt Orr, the Nesbitt School of Pharmacy was established.[8] The Jay S. Sidhu School of Business & Leadership was created in 2004, and the following year, the Henry Student Center was expanded and the university purchased an 80,000-square-foot (7,400 m2) building in downtown Wilkes-Barre.[8] The University Center on Main (Ucom) building houses the Sidhu School of Business and Leadership, an indoor track and field, and ropes course.


By 2014, Wilkes University grew to include eight academic buildings, 20 residence halls, nine administrative buildings, and other facilities such as the Eugene S. Farley Library, the Henry Student Center, and athletic complexes.[10]

Campus



Academic buildings


Most of the academic buildings are located within the same city block, between South River Street, South Franklin Street, South Street, and Northampton Street. The Stark Learning Center (SLC), located on South River Street, is the largest building on campus with 220,000 square feet housing classrooms, laboratories, and office space.[11] The facility consists of nursing, math and engineering offices and classrooms.[11] Stark Learning Center received extensive renovation in 2018. [12][13][14]


Classrooms and offices for humanities and social sciences are located in Breiseth Hall, a three-story building located on South Franklin Street, in the same block as SLC. Kirby Hall, a mansion formerly home to Fred Morgan Kirby, was renovated to house offices and classrooms for English.[15]


The Cohen Science Center, a $35 million project, was established to house the biology and health sciences, chemistry and biochemistry, and environmental engineering and earth sciences departments.[16][17] The facility has been built to LEED silver standards for environmental sustainability and allows for students to monitor energy use, water use, and general building performance to aid sustainability studies.[18] The building also features a rooftop vegetation area for greenhouse purposes and to assist in reducing rain runoff.[18]



University Center on Main


In 2005, the university acquired the former Wilkes-Barre Call Center building and parking garage on South Main Street.[19] The parking garage is currently being used for student and faculty parking. The Public Safety department has remodeled and relocated to the basement of the garage.[20] The Call Center building was renovated and renamed University Center on Main.[19] The building now houses recreation facilities including tennis and basketball courts, and a rock climbing wall.[21] In summer 2014, the building was renovated to also house the Sidhu School of Business and Leadership.



Residence halls


The campus offers seventeen different residence halls and apartment buildings for all levels of students, although some apartments are reserved for upperclassmen.[22] Many residence halls are located in 19th century mansions that were donated to the university, or other houses purchased by the university. Over 11 mansion and house style residence halls are used throughout the campus.[22] Apartment style residences are found in University Towers and Rifkin Hall.[22] Non-apartment residence halls include Catlin Hall, Doane Hall, Evans Hall, Fortinsky Halls, Passan Hall, Ross Hall, Roth Hall, Schiowitz Hall, Sterling Hall, Sturdevant Hall, Sullivan Hall, University Towers, Waller Halls (North and South), and Weiss Hall.[22] First year and second year students are required to live in residence halls (unless he or she is a commuter), and can live off-campus starting their third year.[23]


Traditional dormitory housing is provided at Evans Residence Hall. With four floors and about 200 students, Evans Residence Hall is the largest first-year student residential hall on the Wilkes University campus. Renovated in 2008, Chesapeake and Delaware Residence Halls were re-dedicated as Lawrence W. Roth Residence Hall, a residential hall connecting the previously separate Chesapeake and Delaware Residence Halls. It is a first year student, non-traditional residential hall house with about seventy residents and three RAs. Students living on campus have access to laundry facilities, basic cable, and local phone service.[22]


The university purchased the University Towers apartment complex located at 10 East South Street from a private real estate company for $8.1 million. Approximately 400 students are housed in this building's 130 units.[24] Part of the nearby YMCA building has been renovated into apartment style residences and houses upperclassman.[25][26] The apartments are known as 40 West.[25]



Bookstore


The university partnered with neighboring King's College to operate a joint for-profit bookstore in downtown Wilkes-Barre.[27] The new bookstore opened in October 2006, consolidating two independent bookstores into one new facility.[27][28] The new bookstore, run by Barnes & Noble College Booksellers, is located in the basement and first floor of the Innovation Center on South Main Street.[28] The bookstore includes a full selection of general trade books, a full-service Starbucks cafe, lounges and study areas, and a spirit shop featuring products from both Wilkes and King's College.[28]



Karambelas Media and Communications Center


In August 2017, the university dedicated the newly renovated Bartikowsky Jewelers building as the Karambelas Media and Communications Center. It houses WCLH (the university radio station), the Beacon newspaper, Zebra Communications (a student-led public relations company)[29] and the Sordoni Art Gallery.[30]



Dorothy Dickson Darte Center for the Performing Arts


The Darte Center is the home of performing arts at Wilkes University. Built in 1965, it includes the Darling Theater, which seats 478, a black box theater which seats 48, and a two-story music building.[31] The land on which the Darte Center sits was donated by the Wyoming Valley Society of Arts and Sciences. The building was financed by an anonymous donation by Dorothy Dickson Darte, and dedicated in her honor after her death.[7]
