Breezedale, the stately Victorian mansion that has graced the 亚色影库 campus since the mid-1800s, is home to the 亚色影库 Alumni Association and the 亚色影库 Office of Alumni and Friends.
Breezedale was constructed in the late 1860s by James Sutton and his wife, Sarah Stansbury Sutton (James was the brother of John Sutton, Indiana's first board president). It was eventually sold to John Elkin, a Supreme Court justice and Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate, and his wife, Adda Prothero Elkin. The interior reflects the Victorian and Edwardian periods, with bold colors, rich woodwork, and ornate furniture.
The mansion's second and third floors are home to the Alumni and Friends staff, but its first floor can be rented.
