Chatham College




Founded in 1869 by Reverend William Trimble Beatty , Chatham was
initially situated in a mansion on 5th Avenue in the neighborhood of Shadyside.
The campus today is composed of buildings and grounds from a number of former private mansions.

Among Chatham's alumnae is Biologist and Zoologist Rachel Carson ( 1929 ), after whom the ''Rachel Carson Institute'' at Chatham is named. The RCI, as it is known, promotes understanding of Environmental issues through conferences, lectures, discussion panels, and other methods.
