The stretch of buildings that spans (from west to east) Job, Friends, and Textor Halls, as well as the Muller Faculty Center, comprises the academic and administrative backbone of Ithaca's campus. Job Hall serves as home to the Offices of the President, Student Billing Services, the Registrar, the Provost, and two vice presidents. Also in Job is the Office of Admission, which coordinates campus tours, both actual and virtual.

Friends Hall contains a number of classrooms, two computer labs, a conference room, and a specially equipped classroom for intensive interactive learning. Constructed in 1961, Friends Hall was our first classroom building and was named in honor of the Friends of Ithaca College, a group of community leaders whose generous financial contributions helped make possible our move from downtown Ithaca to the South Hill campus.

Textor Hall has enhanced classrooms and lecture halls outfitted with audio, visual, and Internet technology that professors use to incorporate multimedia elements into their courses. This technology also serves well in the evenings, when the Student Activities Board presents recently released films at a fraction of movie theater prices.

Muller Faculty Center is home to the dean's office for the School of Humanities and Sciences and is a hub of activity for many of the school's faculty. The building also houses Information Technology Services (ITS), and the department offices for politics, education, English, history, modern languages and literature, sociology, and speech communication.
