Wold House

Wold House is named in honor of Peter I. Wild and Mary Helff Wold, by son John S. Wold, Class of 1938, and his wife Jane. Dr. Peter I. Wold, chairman of the Union Physics Department from 1919-1945, and his family lived in this original faculty residence.

The first professional geologist elected to the U.S. Congress, John Wold of Wyoming, is recognized as one of the American West's leaders in both the development and conservation of our natural resources.

Natives of Schenectady and longtime benefactors of Union, the Wolds are committed to providing the best academic program and social environment for Union Students.

This house was dedicated on October 1, 2004.
