The first classes were held at McMaster on Oct. 1, 1930, with about 25 professors and 500 students on a campus of six buildings. Hamilton Hall (left , named in honour of the citizens of Hamilton who contributed to its construction, was dedicated to the sciences. University Hall (right) housed administration, arts classes and the library.

Archive displays of fascinating photos of McMaster's history will be available for viewing in the McMaster University Student Centre.
