Aigler Alumni Building, formerly the College Hill School, is a historic building in Tiffin, Ohio, that was listed in the National Register on February 12, 1979. ^{[3] [4]} It is one of ten buildings on the Heidelberg University campus listed on the National Register of Historic Places. ^[5]

History

The building is named for alumni Allan G. Aigler, Class of 1902, who was a trustee of the university from 1926–1960. ^{[6] [7]} The Aigler Alumni Building was purchased by Heidelberg University from the Tiffin City Board of Education in 1961, and was outfitted for use as a classroom, office, and laboratory building. It had previously functioned as an elementary school. ^[8] In 2010 the Graduate Studies Office, psychology, criminal justice and political science moved into the building when the School of Business moved into the newly remodeled Adams Hall. ^{[8] [6]}
