    Oberlin Oberlin Historic Landmarks Historic Landmarks 6th Edition 2018 A descriptive list of designated landmarks and a street guide to their locations Oberlin Historic Landmarks Oberlin Historic Preservation Commission Acknowledgments: Text: Jane Blodgett and Carol Ganzel Photographs for this edition: Dale Preston Sources: Oberlin Architecture: College and Town by Geoffrey Blodgett City-wide Building Inventory: www.oberlinheritage.org/researchlearn/inventory Published 2018 by the Historic Preservation Commission of the City of Oberlin Sixth edition; originally published 1997 Oberlin Historic Preservation Commission Maren McKee, Chair Michael McFarlin, Vice Chair James Young Donna VanRaaphorst Phyllis Yarber Hogan Kristin Peterson, Council Liaison Carrie Handy, Staff Liaison Saundra Phillips, Secretary to the Commission Introduction Each building and site listed in this booklet is an officially designated City of Oberlin Historic Landmark. The landmark designation means, according to city ordinance, that the building or site has particular historic or cultural sig- nificance, or is associated with people or events important to the history of Oberlin, Ohio, or reflects distinguishing characteristics of an architect, archi- tectural style, or building type. Many Oberlin landmarks meet more than one of these criteria. The landmark list is not all-inclusive: many Oberlin buildings that meet the criteria have not yet been designated landmarks. To consider a property for landmark designation, the Historic Preservation Commission needs an appli- cation from its owner with documentation of its date and proof that it meets at least one of the criteria. Some city landmarks are also listed on the National Register of Historic Plac- es, and three are National Historic Landmarks. These designations are indicat- ed in the text.

After considering the above filings, their attached or referenced exhibits, and for the reasons that follow, Defendants' Motions for Summary Judgment are granted in part and denied in part. I. Factual Background Though the Court is not required to make specific findings of fact in ruling on Defendants' Motions for Summary Judgment, the Court believes that the factual landscape is an important foundation to the analysis herein. See Ohio Civ. R. 52. On the afternoon of November 9, 2016, an incident took place involving three African- American Oberlin College Students — Jonathan Aladin, Cecelia Whettstone, and Endia Lawrence, and Allyn D. Gibson — an employee of Plaintiff Gibson Bros. Inc., the entity that operates Gibson's Food Market and Bakery ("Gibson's"). Allyn D.

  • Oberlin and the Fight to End Slavery, 1833-1863
    "Be not conformed to this world": Oberlin and the Fight to End Slavery, 1833-1863 by Joseph Brent Morris This thesis/dissertation document has been electronically approved by the following individuals: Baptist,Edward Eugene (Chairperson) Bensel,Richard F (Minor Member) Parmenter,Jon W (Minor Member) “BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD”: OBERLIN AND THE FIGHT TO END SLAVERY, 1833-1863 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Joseph Brent Morris August 2010 © 2010 Joseph Brent Morris “BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD”: OBERLIN AND THE FIGHT TO END SLAVERY, 1833-1863 Joseph Brent Morris, Ph. D. Cornell University 2010 This dissertation examines the role of Oberlin (the northern Ohio town and its organically connected college of the same name) in the antislavery struggle. It traces the antislavery origins and development of this Western “hot-bed of abolitionism,” and establishes Oberlin—the community, faculty, students, and alumni—as comprising the core of the antislavery movement in the West and one of the most influential and successful groups of abolitionists in antebellum America. Within two years of its founding, Oberlin’s founders had created a teachers’ college and adopted nearly the entire student body of Lane Seminary, who had been dismissed for their advocacy of immediate abolition. Oberlin became the first institute of higher learning to admit men and women of all races. America's most famous revivalist (Charles Grandison Finney) was among its new faculty as were a host of outspoken proponents of immediate emancipation and social reform.

  • 2008-09 Visiting Team Guide
    2008-09 Visiting Team Guide Welcome Oberlin College, founded in 1833, is an independent coeducational institution which is comprised of two divisions, the College of Arts and Sciences, with about 2,300 students, and the Conservatory of Music, with about 500 enrolled. Oberlin offers bachelor of arts and bachelor of music degree programs, as well as a combined five-year program leading to both degrees. The presence of the College of Arts and Sciences and the Conservatory of Music on one campus is rare and enriching. Students in the College and Conservatory share residences and dining facilities as part of a single academic community. Most Conservatory students take academic work in the College of Arts and Sciences, and each year more than one-third of the College students take applied music or courses in the Conservatory. Oberlin’s size, residential character, diversity and selectivity provide an atmosphere highly conducive to intellectual and personal growth. Its faculty of teacher-scholars has traditionally emphasized both academic achievement and individual development. Oberlin students participate in a wide variety of extracurricular activities on the campus. Oberlin College is highly selective and dedicated to recruiting students from diverse backgrounds. Oberlin was the first truly coeducational college in the United States, as well as an early leader in educating black students. The Oberlin College Department of Athletics and Physical Education welcomes you to this beautiful campus. Enclosed in this packet you will find pertinent information which will assist you during your visit to Oberlin College and the surrounding community. Please let any member of our staff know if we can help you with your visit.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Faculty & Staff choS larship by an authorized administrator of Digital Commons at Oberlin. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ENGLISH AT OBERLIN: 1880-1960 By Robert Longsworth (May 2010) 2 Preface This essay grew out of several years of delicious conversation with Geoffrey Blodgett, whom I was privileged to reckon a very dear friend and whom I admired as an incomparably able historian. His knowledge about and understanding of the history of his alma mater, from which he retired in 2000 as Robert S. Danforth Professor of History, are exemplified in his Oberlin History: Essays and Impressions (published posthumously by the Kent State University Press in 2006). He told me that the Oberlin Department of English deserved some study, and urged me to undertake the task. I deeply regret that his death deprived me of his counsel during my attempt to follow his suggestion. Happily, however, I have benefited from the discerning advice of several very astute readers. Roland Baumann, Oberlin College Archivist until his retirement in 2008, has been not only a thoughtful reader but also a generous and wise guide through the remarkably rich archival material in his custody. The members of his staff--Ken Grossi, who is currently the College Archivist; Tammy Martin; and Lisa Farrar--have been unstinting in their helpfulness.
