History

Founding

Edward Litchfield, 12th chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh, led the efforts to establish the Bradford campus. PittChancellorLitchfield.jpg
Edward Litchfield, 12th chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh, led the efforts to establish the Bradford campus.

The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford was founded in 1963, in response to a shortage of higher education institutions in the North central / Northwestern region of Pennsylvania. While Pennsylvania State University had previously offered courses in Bradford in 1933 and 1948, these arrangements lasted only a year and, at the time of Pitt Bradford’s establishment, there were no opportunities for tertiary learning in the surrounding six-county area. To address this void, local leaders reached out to University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) Chancellor Edward Litchfield, advocating for a permanent presence in the region. During the early correspondence, Litchfield was evaluating the feasibility of several sites in Western Pennsylvania with the goal of increasing the University’s footprint. Pitt had previous success establishing extension centers and junior colleges, particularly the Johnstown Junior College in Cambria County in 1927, a model which served as the inspiration for the Penn State commonwealth campuses, and which the Litchfield administration now planned to incorporate into Pitt’s expansion. [4]

Among Pitt’s primary concerns were both the interest of local communities in maintaining and financially supporting a regional campus. Once the University leadership settled on Bradford and two other locations, Litchfield’s administration worked with officials in the Bradford area to acquire funding and facilities for the new venture (including classrooms, dormitories, and a library), as well as new faculty. To support the college’s establishment and growth, local philanthropists and businesses exceeded the University’s fundraising target by more than thirty percent. [5] The first class arrived in Fall 1963 and consisted of 143 full-time and 145 part-time students.

A private university since its founding, the University of Pittsburgh became a state-related institution in 1966 upon joining the Commonwealth System of Higher Education. This affiliation provided access to public funding, which was used in part to help expand the campus and programs at Pitt Bradford. [6] While the college was originally located in Bradford’s downtown area, it moved in the 1970s to its current location just outside the city limits, putting down roots on land collectively donated by Witco-Kendall Corporation, the City of Bradford, and Bradford Township. [7]

1980 to present

Initially a two-year institution for students intending to transfer to the Pittsburgh campus, Pitt Bradford received baccalaureate degree-granting status in 1979. Under the leadership of President Richard McDowell, the campus continued to experience growth throughout the 1980s and 1990s, expanding its academic programs, physical plant, and forging its identity as a four-year residential college. As part of this process, the campus continued revising its curriculum to include foundational liberal arts courses, ensuring that students received an eclectic education and exposure to various disciplines, in addition to their major coursework. [8]

In 2004, the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford conferred its first honorary degree to opera star Marilyn Horne, in recognition of her support of the campus and local community. [9] A 2012 study conducted by the University of Pittsburgh's Center for Social and Urban Research found that Pitt Bradford was generating $67.5 million in annual economic activity for the region, creating or supporting 740 full-time jobs. [7] In 2013, the college celebrated its 50th anniversary, now having over 10,000 alumni from all 50 states and several countries around the world. To mark the occasion, Pitt Bradford unveiled a new panther statue on the Bromeley Quadrangle. [10] On July 1, 2022, Richard Esch (then Pitt Bradford Vice President for Business Affairs), assumed the role of President. [11]

Campus

The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford is located just outside the city limits of Bradford, Pennsylvania, in Bradford Township in rural McKean County, Pennsylvania, near the Allegheny National Forest. The 470-acre campus has 38 buildings (including 16 residence halls and an athletics complex) and is bordered by the Tungungwant Creek and the adjacent McDowell Trail. The structures combine a modern architectural style with rustic features, designed to complement the area’s natural surroundings. [12]

Bromeley Quadrangle

The center of campus is the Bromeley Quadrangle, where Pitt Bradford's primary administrative and academic buildings are located. Swarts Hall, Pitt-Bradford's first academic building, is home to several disciplines, including business, economics, history, education, nursing, political science, and sociology. The building also houses several multimedia classrooms, a CIS&T lab, and the Office of Academic Affairs.

Fisher Hall contains the science and engineering faculty and is the location for classes in biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, petroleum technology, and energy science and technology. It is also home to the science labs and two computer-aided learning centers (known as CALC labs). The campus greenhouse is atop the building. In 2010, Fisher Hall's chemistry and biology laboratories received nearly $6 million in upgrades. [13]

The Frame-Westerberg Commons is the student center. Positioned in front of the commons is a 10.5 foot-long (3.2m) bronze panther statue created by Bradford native David Hodges. The panther stands on top of a rock originating from the same quarry that provided stone for the University of Pittsburgh's Pittsburgh campus’ Cathedral of Learning -- and was unveiled on September 3, 2013 in honor of the 50th anniversary of Pitt Bradford's opening. [14]

Hanley Library (the last building constructed on the quad) contains more than 95,000 books. The library also provides access to 400 electronic databases; 50,000 e-journals; 300,000 e-books; and other electronic resources. The Bradford campus has access to the full scholarly resources of the University of Pittsburgh from 20 libraries and more than 6 million books through the University Library System. Hanley Library is home to the Academic Success Center, the Academic Advising Center, the Writing Center, and TRIO Student Support Services, which provides academic assistance to students. The Hanley Library Cafe is located inside near the foyer.

With 6,148,036 total volumes, the University of Pittsburgh Library System is the 29th largest library and 21st largest university library in the United States. It is also the second largest library in Pennsylvania, behind only the Penn Libraries of the University of Pennsylvania. [15]

Other buildings

Across the "loop" on Campus Drive, Blaisdell Hall is Pitt Bradford's fine arts and communication arts building and home to the broadcast communications, public relations, interdisciplinary arts, theater and music programs. It features all-digital television and radio studios, the 500-seat Bromeley Family Theater, art studios, a music rehearsal hall, lighting and sound booths, and music theory and technology studios. The building is also home to the KOA Art Gallery, which hosts various exhibitions of traditional and new genre art. [16]

It is also houses facilities for the exercise science and athletic training majors, including a physiology lab.

The Hangar Building, a former airplane hangar, contains the Office of Enrollment Services and Registrar, the Office of Financial Aid and the Office of Business Affairs. The Systems and Network Administration Practice (SNAP) lab for the CIS&T program also resides here. Wick Chapel, a $2.5 million, 150-seat, multipurpose, nondenominational chapel was dedicated on September 30, 2010. [19] [20]
