'Norwich University' (NU) is a
private university located in
Northfield,
Vermont. It is home to both a Corps of Cadets (NUCC) and a smaller traditional student population. The University was originally founded in
1819 at
Norwich, Vermont, as the 'American Literary, Scientific and Military Academy'. It is the oldest private
military college in the
United States and recognized by the
Department of Defense as the "Birthplace of
ROTC." It is the first U.S. military academy to admit African-Americans, the first to admit women on equal footing with their male counterparts, and the first American military academy to adopt a policy of non-discrimation on sexual orientation.
History
Partridge and his academy
The University was founded in
1819 at Norwich by military educator
Captain Alden B. Partridge. Captain Partridge believed in the "American System of Education," a traditional
liberal arts curriculum with instruction in
civil engineering and
military science. After leaving
West Point because of congressional disapproval of his system, he returned to his native state of
Vermont to create the American Literary, Scientific and Military Academy. Captain Partridge, in founding his Academy, rebelled against the reforms of
Sylvanus Thayer to prevent the rise of what he saw as the greatest threat to the security of the young republic: a professional officer class. He believed that a well-trained
militia was a dire necessity and developed the American system around that idea. His academy became the inspiration for a number of
military colleges throughout the nation, including both the
Virginia Military Institute and
The Citadel, and later the
land grant colleges created through the
Morrill Act of 1862.

Fire and hardship: Norwich in the 19th century
In
1825 the academy moved to
Middletown,
Connecticut to provide better naval training to the school's growing corps of cadets. However, in
1829, the state of Connecticut declined to grant Captain Partridge a charter and he moved the school back to Norwich. It wasn't until
1834 that Vermont granted a charter and recognized the institution as "Norwich University." The University, beginning in
1826, offered the first program of courses in
civil engineering in the US. During the
1856 academic year, the first chapter of the
Theta Chi Fraternity was founded by cadets
Frederick Norton Freeman and
Arthur Chase. With the beginning of the
Civil War in
1861, Norwich cadets served as instructors of the state militias throughout the
Northeast and the entire class of
1862 enlisted upon its graduation. Because of the university's participation in the struggle, the number of students dwindled to 7 in the class of
1864 alone. After a catastrophic fire in
1866 which devastated the entire campus, the town of Northfield welcomed the struggling school. The Civil War, the fire, and the uncertainty regarding the continuation of the University seriously lowered the attendance, and the school opened in the fall of 1866 with only nineteen students. The 1870s and '80s saw many financially turbulent times for the institution and the renaming of the school to 'Lewis College' in
1880. In 1881 the student body was reduced to only a dozen men. Later, by
1884, the Vermont Legislature had the name of the school changed back to Norwich. In
1898 the University was designated as the 'Military College of the State of Vermont'.
War and expansion: Norwich in the 20th century
As part of the
Vermont National Guard, the school's Corps of Cadets was mobilized as a squadron of cavalry in the First Vermont Regiment to assist in General
John J. Pershing's Mexican Expedition. This greatly disrupted the academic year and in
1916 the
War Department designated Norwich as the first site for a Senior
ROTC cavalry unit; also in 1916, the first African-American,
Harold 'Doc' Martin (NU 1920), matriculated. Classes graduated early for both the
First and
Second World Wars and many Norwich-made officers saw service in all theaters of both conflicts. Professional education offered at Norwich also changed and adapted with the advance of technology. Military flight training began in
1939 and from
1946 to
1947, horse
cavalry was completely phased out in favor of
armored cavalry.
Graduates returning from European and Pacific fields of battle found a university very different from the one they had left behind. From the late 1940s to the 1960s, Norwich was greatly expanded and added a number of new opportunities. In 1947, the
Army Department created a new program uniquely suited to Vermont's harsh climate: a mountain and cold weather warfare unit.
Air Force and
Navy ROTC programs were established in
1972 and
1984 respectively. During the
1974 school year, the University admitted women into the Corps of Cadets. Although unpopular at the time, Norwich University began a social trend that would move the country closer in
gender equality. The 1972 merger and
1993 integration with
Vermont College added two groups to "the Hill," civilian students and women. (Norwich later sold its Vermont College campus and non-traditional degree programs to the
Union Institute and University in 2001.

The Bicentennial and beyond: Norwich in the 21st century
The ending of one century and birth of a new finds Norwich with a robust Corps of Cadets and a thriving traditional student body. Norwich maintains its position as a center of learning for civil service with online graduate programs, the 5 year Master of Architecture program and since
2001 an
National Security Agency-sponsored Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance.
NU 2019
As the University moves closer to the bicentennial of the school's founding, the NU2019 plan was launched in
2005. Under the guidance of the Alumni Association, the Board of Trustees and the Office of the President, the University has budgeted millions of dollars to radically change and improve the campus.
Proposed additions are to include:
★ Traditional Student housing quad separate from the Corps housing on the Upper Parade Ground
★ Harmon Hall dining facility rebuilt into a Campus Service Center
★ A refurbishment of Webb and Ainsworth Halls and a new Humanities & Social Science quad
★ Improved transportation network and general campus beautification
★ Increasing enrollment by five-hundred undergraduate students

Academic buildings
'Ainsworth Hall'
In
1910 Ainsworth Hall was constructed for the United States Weather Bureau as their central Vermont station. Later returned to the University in
1948, it served as the Administrative Headquarters of the campus. By
1955, growth of the University forced the relocation of the Administration back up the hill to Dewey Hall. When also in 1955 construction began on Webb Hall to the immediate west of the building, the infirmary moved into the now empty structure. Due to expansion of the University in the
1960s and
1970s the building was converted into the home of the Division of Social Sciences. The building is named for Mrs. Laura Ainsworth, widow of Captain James E. Ainsworth (NU 1853), who in
1915 worked to bring an infirmary to campus.
'Chaplin Hall'
Chaplin Hall, originally Carnegie Hall, was built in
1907 and is the home of the Division of Architecture & Art. Paid for by
Andrew Carnegie, the building served as the University's library until
1993 with the construction of Kreitzberg Library. When the library was renovated in
1952, from the contributions of trustee Henry P. Chaplin it was rededicated as the Henry Prescott Chaplin Memorial Library. Until
1941 and the addition of Partridge Hall to the growing campus, Chaplin Hall also provided the classrooms and offices for the Department of Electrical Engineering.
'Communications Building'
This building, on the site of the first building in Center Northfield, contains the offices and classrooms of the Communications Department. The offices for the Guidon and the studios for both the University's radio station WNUB-FM are also located in this building. The building was purchased by the University in
1973 and restored in
1988.
'Dewey Hall'
Named for
Admiral of the Navy George Dewey and completed in
1902, Dewey Hall is one of the oldest buildings in the Northfield campus. It was originally two stories high with the lower floor occupied by offices of the University's administration, the library and museum. Office space for trustees and faculty, a chapel with a seating of five hundred and the United States Weather Bureau were located on the second floor. With the departure of the Weather Bureau in 1909 and the completion of the then new Carnegie Library in 1907 the Hall was primarily used by the Military Department. In October,
1925 a fire gutted the building which led to its reconstruction as a three story structure. Dewey Hall currently houses the Division of Business & Management and a computer lab.
'Hollis House'
Hollis House is today the location of a number of classrooms and offices of the Division of Humanities. Built in
1852, the building was until
1909 the house of a number of prominent residents of Northfield. When sold that year to the University it became part of the
US Weather Bureau's station collocated on campus. The building was later named for David B. "Dixie" Hollis (NU 1922) who upon his death in 1993 donated what was until that point the largest single in the University's history, a total of seven million dollars.
'Engineering, Math and Science Complex'
The Engineering, Math and Science Complex houses the David Crawford School of Engineering as well as the departments of
Geology,
Chemistry,
Physics,
Biology and
Mathematics. The complex is composed of five buildings: Juckett, Partridge and Tompkins Halls; the Science Building and the Cabot Annex. The complex was completed in
1997 and replaced a previous set of
1940s and
1950s era facilities. The Engineering, Math and Science Complex also contains the University's Computer Services office and the majority of the campus' independent computer labs.
'Kreitzberg Library'
Kreitzberg Library is named in recognition of Barbara and Chairman of the Board of Trustees
Fred Kreitzberg (NU 1957). The Library has a catalogue of more than 240,000 books, about 800 archived periodicals, and a collection of Federal government publications. The Norwich University Archives and Special Collections houses rare books and unique source materials relating to military history, the history of Vermont, and the history of the University. The 58,000 square foot library was designed by Perry, Dean, Rogers & Partners and was completed in 1993 at a cost of $8.1 million.
'Webb Hall'
Webb Hall was completed in
1960 and originally housed the English, Modern Languages, Social Sciences, Business Administration and the Psychology and Education departments. Currently, the Division of Humanities, Nursing Department and Education program are located in this building. Twenty one classrooms, three seminar rooms and a computer lab are available. Dole Auditorium, which can seat over four hundred people, is also located in Webb Hall. The building is named after
J. Watson Webb, a Norwich trustee and world class polo player. Dole Auditorium honors
Charles Dole (NU 1869), who served in his career at the University as an instructor in Mathematics and Latin, a professor of history and rhetoric, the commandant of cadets and acting president of the University from
1895 to
1896.

Athletic buildings
'Andrews Hall'
Andrews Hall, built in 1980, houses the Departments of the Health, Physical Education and Athletics. In addition, it has basketball and racquetball courts and the equipment and training rooms for the university's varsity and intramural teams. The Athletic Hall of Fame is also located in Andrews Hall. The facility honors trustee
Paul R. Andrews (NU 1930).
'Kreitzberg Arena'
Kreitzberg Arena, also named in for the Kreitzberg family, is the home of Norwich Hockey. Construction on this multi-purpose arena was completed in the spring of
1998. The 59,000 square ft. arena has a 200 x 90 ice surface and seating for 1400, with a maximum capacity of 5,000 for special events. The arena also hosts the
ECAC Hockey East Regional Finals.
'Plumley Armory'
The Armory, built in 1928, is named to honor a distinguished 1896 graduate of the University,
Charles A. Plumley. Plumley served as the President of the University from
1930 to
1934 when he was elected to
Congress as Vermont's sole representative from 1934 to
1951. The main floor of the building provides seating space for 4,000 in an area as large as three basketball courts. There is an elevated running track as well as locker rooms, training rooms, and Navy ROTC offices in the basement. Connected to the Armory is Goodyear Pool. Built in
1962, the Pool is a 25 x 14 yard 5 lane facility that is open to all University members.
'Shapiro Field House'
Shapiro Field House, built in 1987 and named for trustee
Jacob Shapiro (NU 1936), houses a multipurpose arena that has a 200-meter indoor running track, four tennis courts, and a climbing wall. It is also used for athletic practices, Commencement, concerts and other university functions.
Other buildings
'The Harmon Memorial'
The Harmon Memorial is a tribute to
Major General Ernest Harmon, who attended Norwich University from
1912 to
1913 and was later president from
1950 to
1979. Recorded on the memorial, by year of death, are the names of alumni, faculty, staff, and friends of Norwich University that have made a "significant contribution" to the University.
'Harmon Hall'
Harmon Hall opened in 1955 and later enlarged in 1958. Since then, it has served as the focal point for student life and activities. The campus mess hall, bookstore, post office, and The Mill (a snack bar open to upperclassmen and civilian freshmen) are located on the lower two floors. The Foreign Student Office, Student Activities, Yearbook Office, Music Program offices, a game room, and a lounge were located on the top floor. This floor originally housed the departments of English, History, and Modern Languages until they were moved to Webb Hall in 1960. Harmon Hall is currently undergoing a
major multi-million-dollar remodeling due to be completed in
2007. The addition onto Harmon Hall will be named the Wise Campus Center and house new dining and food preparation facilities as well as a new book store, post ofice, and other student recreation facilities.
'Jackman Hall'
Norwich University moved to Northfield from Norwich, Vermont in 1866 when the South Barracks at the older location were destroyed by fire. Old Jackman Hall was the first building to be constructed at the new central Vermont site. The building was erected in 1868, and named Jackman Hall in 1907 to honor Brigadier General
Alonzo Jackman (NU 1836) a distinguished faculty member, creator of the trans-Atlantic telegraph cable system and commander of the Vermont Brigade during the Civil War. From its construction till 1905 the building served as housing for cadets. In the mid-1950s Jackman Hall was extensively remodeled and modernized, however, it became apparent that the almost century-old barracks were too costly to maintain. It was decided that rather than pay for near continual upkeep to build a new hall on the same site. As many newer barracks had been built since its original construction it was decided that the new Jackman Hall would serve as the primary administration building. Currently the Army and Air Force ROTC departments are housed in Jackman, as well.
'White Chapel'
Constructed by a gift from
Eugene L. White (NU 1914), a trustee, the chapel was completed in 1941. Originally designed as a multi-purpose building, then White Hall has served as a mess hall with a dining room, lunch room, kitchen, a college store and a recreational room. White Hall was converted to the University's first single-purpose chapel after Harmon Hall was opened in
1955. There are two bronze plaques on the walls that honor the Norwich war dead. Weekly services include
Catholic Mass on Saturday and Sunday,
Non-denominational service on Sunday, and
Islamic Prayer on Friday.
'Sullivan Museum and History Center'
One of the newest buildings on the campus, the Sullivan Museum was opened in January of 2007. The building is named after General Gordon R. Sullivan (ret.), Norwich class of 1959 and former U. S. Army Chief of Staff. The Sullivan Museum houses state of the art conservation, storage, and display facilities for the wide variety of Norwich University artifacts and memorabilia. Items currently displayed cover a wide spectrum of Norwich history, including uniforms worm by Alden Partridge and Alonzo Jackman to pieces from more recent history.
'Wise Campus Center'
The 71,000-square-foot Wise Campus Center serves as the social hub of the Norwich campus. Nestled against a backdrop of Paine Mountain, the glass jewel-box building offers community members spectacular views of the campus and the surrounding natural areas of Central Vermont. The WCC is modern in both appearance and functionality — students, staff and faculty can connect to the wireless network, grab a quick meal at the café and catch a film in the screening room.
The center also affords patrons the benefits associated with a small college community — quiet sitting areas near fireplaces, faculty and student lounges, a recreation room and a top-notch dining area. Other amenities provided in the campus center include the University’s twenty-one plus Partidge’s Pub, a double-height winter garden, the campus bookstore and multiple meeting rooms. Outside the WCC, community members can also enjoy the benefits of the campus center. An external-facing fireplace serves as a welcoming refuge after a day of skating on the University’s outdoor rink, which is located on the quad just outside the center. During warmer months, the dining terrace provides a cool spot to enjoy an iced coffee or some light fare, and the quad becomes the University’s recreation hot-spot, perfectly suited for Frisbee, a game of catch or simply soaking up the sun.
Athletics
The Norwich University Cadets compete at the NCAA Division III level and are affiliated in one of four conferences, mainly the
Great Northeast Athletic Conference. There are 11 varsity sports and one club sport for men at Norwich University. The Cadets participate in Baseball, Basketball, Cross Country, Football, Soccer, Lacrosse, and more. In recent years, Norwich men's teams have been regularly found in the national rankings, won conference titles, and won two national championships in ice hockey.
This is an exciting time for women's athletics at Norwich University. Two sports, lacrosse and volleyball, have recently been approved to receive varsity status and will compete as such in coming years. All current women's varsity teams compete at the NCAA Division III level and are members of the Great Northeast Athletic Conference. Some of the sports the women compete in are Basketball, Ice Hockey, Lacrosse, Soccer, Softball, Swimming & Diving, and more.
The Norwich Men's Basketball team returned to the NCAA Tournament in 2006 after winning the GNAC post-season title. Head Coach Paul Booth garnered GNAC Coach of the Year honors for a second straight season, while point guard Geoff Hensley was named to the All-GNAC 1st Team and forward Rene Cheatham made the All-GNAC 2nd Team.
Students and organization
The University has approx. 2,000
undergraduate students, 112 full-time faculty (approx. 80% hold a doctorate), and a fluctuating number of adjunct professors. The student/faculty ratio is 14:1 and the male/female ratio is 2:1. The freshman retention rate is 80%. The student body is comprised of students from over 40 different states and 20 countries.
Norwich University has two very different on-campus resident programs: the Corps of Cadets and the traditional student body.
Corps
The Corps side is structured as a
regiment commanded by a Cadet Colonel (C/COL) with four
battalions each commanded by a Cadet Lieutenant Colonel (C/LTC). Normally, each battalion consists of three
companies commanded by a Cadet Captain (C/CPT) which are made of two platoons (1st platoon is the upperclassmen and 2nd platoon the freshmen, or "Rooks").
Traditional
The Resident Life Department oversees the "civilian" side. Floors in the Residence Halls are under the supervision of a
Resident Advisor (RA). The Residence Halls are in turn supervised by Assistant Resident Coordinators (ARC) who report to the Resident Coordinator (RC) and the Director (DoRL) and Assistant Director (ADoRL) of Resident Life. Norwich is unique in that students hold positions that at many other colleges and universities are reserved for professional staff.
