Dixon University Center

Dixon University Center, located in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, is an academic and governance center, providing area residents the advantages of both public and private institutions. An expansive menu of undergraduate, graduate and certificate programs, professional development, and customized training that are offered on-site by a consortium of (Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education ) universities and private colleges and universities for adult students, in the evenings and on weekends. The Center is also a cultural resource, a testing ground for new technology, and a community gathering place. Whether your objective is educational enhancement or career advancement, learning opportunities presented through DUC can help you achieve your goals. A convenient location, just minutes off I-81 along Harrisburg’s riverfront, provides easy access to this academic hub, which now has more than 2,000 enrollments and hosts 600-plus meetings and events a year. 〔(Dixon University Center ) 〕
==History==
Dixon University Center was once the home of the Harrisburg Academy, whose leaders built the five historic structures on the grounds today. The Academy maintained the location until 1941, when the War Department took over the facility. Since 1956, the Center has functioned in various configurations as an educational consortium. In 1987, the Center's Board of Directors - a community corporation - invited Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education (the 14 publicly owned universities) to lead the University Center at Harrisburg consortium and ensure continuation of its higher education mission.
The State System began operating the six-and-one-half-acre site under a lease/purchase agreement in 1988, and purchased the site in 1991. In 1993, the State System Board of Governors acknowledged the leadership and generosity of its founding chairman, F. Eugene Dixon, Jr., by renaming the Center in his honor.
Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education acquisition of the early twentieth century facility demonstrates a commitment to bring educational programs and opportunities to the Harrisburg area that the 14 universities have provided throughout the Commonwealth for over 150 years. Under the State System's stewardship, the five original structures were renovated and an Administration Building constructed to make the facility adequate for classroom instruction and business purposes. 〔(History of Dixon University Center ) 〕
