Roselawn
Once the traditional home of Roanoke College presidents,
the present building was erected in 1915 and first occupied
by Dr.
John Alfred Morehead, fourth president, and his family in
1916. Prior to its construction, President Dreher had lived
on the same land in a home originally built by Dr. William
B. Yonce (1828-1895) and purchased from him by Dr. Julius
D. Dreher, third president (1846-1937). Today Roselawn houses
the offices of Admissions and Financial Aid. |
