Swift Hall was the second building erected for the Engineering Department at the University of Cincinnati. Constructed in 1926, Swift Hall was designed by Harry Hake to be fireproof, made of steel and concrete, red wire-cut brick and Terra cotta trimming. The building was the last word in architecture, design and construction methods as new inventions changed the fabric of construction.
Swift Hall, named after the generous benefactor John B. Swift, housed the electrical engineering department for the expanding engineering department. Swift was the president of the Eagle Pitcher Lead Company and donated $150,000 in memory of his brother who had been a graduate of the University. Another generous donation by John Emery enabled the University to build the building.
Like other engineering programs across the United States, the University of Cincinnati's Engineering Department competed in the burgeoning world of technology. Through the persistence of UC instructor Paul Herget, who became an astronaut, the University beat out East Schools like Yale to obtain one of the first computers utilized in colleges. The computer was an IBM 650 and allowed UC’s Engineering Department to develop the first program to teach computer programming to the visually impaired as well as those with disabilities.
In 2002 and 2003 Swift Hall, along with other buildings at UC, were renovated to include computer-based classrooms, offices and meeting spaces. Currently Swift Hall houses the Main Campus Newspaper, the News Record, offices and classrooms. On a fun side note: astronomer Paul Herget later helped design the Pringle Potato Chip.
Oringinally completed in 1926, Swift Hall is adjacent to the Steger Student Life Center and houses classrooms, lecture halls, and offices for various UC programs. glaserworks, as Architect of Record worked closely with the University and with design firm Moore Ruble Yudell to create some of UC’s earliest high-tech "digital" classrooms. These electronic classrooms have been designed to comply with specific guidelines supporting teaching and learning with technology. Nearly every student has an unobstructed view of high definition video images projected from a computer, laptop, VCR, DVD, or document camera augmented with excellent sound quality. Lighting and shades are automatically controlled for optimum viewing and note-taking. In the larger lecture rooms, multiple screens allow simultaneous viewing and recording of side-by-side images for comparison or examination i.e. a scanned photo downloaded from the web shown adjacent to a physical specimen placed under the document camera.
