Collection: Preyer Building

Built in 1938, Preyer Infirmary was the source for caring and personal medical attention for a half century of Davidson students. The building was named for Mr. and Mrs. William Yost Preyer, parents of three Davidson students. Preyer was president of Vick Chemical Company from 1938 to 1948. Today the building houses faculty offices for a variety of different disciplines and the ROTC program.

Located at 226 Concord Road, building hours will vary.
