History

The college was founded in 1911 as the Lyndon Normal School, and occupied the mansion built in 1883 by Theodore Newton Vail, the first president of AT&T. The term "normal school" is based on the French école normale supérieure, a school to educate teachers. The College's first president was Rita L. Bole who has two buildings named for her on the campus. In 1947, the Normal School became Lyndon State Teachers College. In 1962, it was renamed Lyndon State College becoming a part of the Vermont State Colleges, a consortium of Vermont's five public colleges governed by a common board of trustees, chancellor and Council of Presidents. Since the college's founding, the original Vail Manor was torn down and the T.N. Vail Building currently sits where the manor once stood.

Vail Hall has classrooms, and teachers offices, especially English, meteorology, mathematics, and education. It also contains the bookstore, student center, and snack bar. The science wing contains classrooms and laboratories. There is a television wing for the television studies. It also houses the small Alexander Twilight Theater. It is connected to the Library and Academic Center (LAC).

LAC contains classrooms, a 24 hour computer lab, and the three-floor library. It is also home to News 7, LSC's daily live broadcast facility.

The Harvey Academic Center is located at the center of campus, and houses offices and classrooms for Recreation Studies, as well as for other classes.

The center of campus is around the fountain, which sprays into a small pond. There is a larger pond across from the library. Adjacent to the fountain is Stevens Dining Hall.

Adjacent to the theater is the Rita Bole Gym. (There is also a Rita Bole residence hall.) The larger gym is used for basketball games. The smaller gym is used mainly for intramural sports. In this complex is an Olympic size swimming pool, racquetball court, and a fitness center. There are computer labs.

On the north side of the campus, across from the baseball fields is the Brown House containing a dispensary. The Gray House is a special residential opportunity, currently for those performing service to the community.

No smoking is allowed on campus.
