Dedicated to
R. Richard Renner, M.D. '17
and
Jennie Steindorf Renner '22
A major grant from the Renner Foundation, which was matched by alumni gifts, made possible, in 1970, the complete remodeling of Bethany House built in 1948. Henry Clay and James A. Garfield were among the notable guest at the first Bethany House which stood on this site from 1842 to 1932. Champ Clar, famous speaker of the House of Representatives waited on tables here while attending college.

A home away from home - a unifying force in campus life.
