- The River Campus is actually the University of Rochester's third home. Its infant years were spent in the ["United States Hotel"] until 1861, when it moved to ["Prince Street"]. Initially an all-male institution, the University had begun accepting female students in 1900, thanks in no small part to the indefatigable campaigning of ["Susan B. Anthony"]. Still, President ["Rush Rhees"] was unhappy with the decision, not because he disapproved of higher education for women but because he believed in separate coordinate colleges. This was finally achieved in 1930, when the River Campus finished construction and was opened as the University of Rochester College for Men. Located near the new ["University of Rochester Medical Center" Medical Center] (completed in the 1920s), it also housed the University's science departments. The female students remained at Prince Street, now designated the College for Women. The costs of running two campuses eventually proved too burdensome, however, and the two Colleges merged in 1955. Most of the Prince Street buildings were sold off.	+ The River Campus is actually the University of Rochester's third home.

Today, Spurrier is used primarily for music practice while "SueB" is a coed freshmen dorm. Most of the Prince Street buildings were sold off.
