ONEONTA, N.Y. — Hartwick College will rename its living-learning apartment community in memory of Dr. Judith Day, wife of trustee and alumnus Raymond (Larry) Miller, who donated nearly $2 million toward the initiative.

The formal renaming is set for Hartwick’s True Blue Weekend in September, during Miller’s 50th class reunion (he’s a 1973 graduate of the college).

“Time and again, Larry Miller has shown steadfast dedication to his alma mater,” Hartwick President Darren Reisberg said in a press release. “Whether through board service, cheering on our athletic teams, or making remarkably generous gifts to support the college’s mission, Larry’s commitment to Hartwick is nearly unrivaled in our 225-year history. His desire to have the college name its newest residence hall in honor of his beloved wife, Judith, will provide a symbol for the Hartwick community that affirms his spirit, leadership, and devotion to the college.”

Miller’s support also includes the installation of a new electronic scoreboard at the college’s Wright Stadium.

Now known as the Judith Day Apartments, the building first opened in August 2017 and was the first new residence hall built on campus since 1995. The $7.1 million living-learning apartment community houses up to 72 upper-class students. The 31,000-square-foot facility features two-and four-bedroom apartments, gathering and programming spaces, and teaching and study rooms.

Hartwick College offers 35 bachelor’s degrees, two master’s degrees, and a certificate in nursing education.
