Juniata College - Campus

Campus

The main campus area is 110 acres (0.45 km2), and the college manages a 315-acre (1.27 km2) Baker-Henry Nature Preserve. Two new buildings since 2000 include the Von Liebig Center for Science and the Suzanne von Liebig Theatre. The newest building project on the campus is the renovation of Founders Hall, which was the first building on campus. Construction was finished in the summer of 2009 and uses underground geothermal energy to heat and cool the building. This building will be recognized as a LEED Gold building.

Other off-campus sites include the Baker Peace Chapel (designed by Maya Lin) and the Raystown Field Station, a 365-acre (1.48 km2) reserve on Raystown Lake. The "cliffs" also offer some beautiful scenery of the Juniata River. The college also owns the Raystown Field Station which includes a LEED Gold building and two lodges for semester-long residential programs, often focused on environmental topics.
