It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[2] HistoryThe College of Idaho was founded in 1891 in what is now the North Caldwell Historic District. After 18 years at that location and another near the Canyon County Courthouse, the college had outgrown its wood frame buildings and had begun a move in 1909 to property donated by Henry and Carrie Blatchley. The college had secured a $25,000 grant from Andrew Carnegie with a stipulation that an endowment be established and three $25,000 buildings be constructed.[3][4] Sterry Hall was one of the buildings. The Caldwell Tribune in 1909 listed the purpose of not yet named Sterry Hall, that it "will contain offices and rooms for the teachers, seven recitation rooms, chemical and physical laboratories, library, assembly room with a seating capacity of 450, rest rooms for both boys and girls, manual training room, large store room, shower bath room and a janitor's room with sleeping quarters."[5]During construction of Sterry Hall in 1909, about 200 students attended the college. New faculty included Miss Merrel Jewel (English and history), Miss Stillman (Latin and English), Miss Elizabeth Parker (drawing and painting), Miss Grace Johnson (music), Mr. John T. Lawlill (mathematics and science), and Mr. Hugh Kingery (science). Returning faculty included Miss Finney, Miss Franklin, Professor Gipson, Professor Kyle, and President Boone.[6] The building is named for Christopher W. Sterry, father of donor Mary Elizabeth (Sterry) Kirkpatrick.[7] See also
