dc.descriptionView of terrace looking north; Willard Straight Hall is the student union building on the central campus of Cornell . It is located on Campus Road. adjacent to the Ho Plaza and the Gannett Health Center. The concept of a "student union" building was a recent invention at the time--the first student union in North America, Houston Hall at the University of Pennsylvania, had opened in 1896. William Adams Delano was a Yale graduate who built buildings on that campus in the Collegiate Gothic style. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 4/21/2011)en_US
