Adelbert Hall is the administrative center of Case Western Reserve University. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it is the original classroom building of Adelbert College. The building was a gift of Amasa Stone. In its early years, it also housed the college library as well as the offices of the college president and treasurer. The large boulders in from of the building (the front faces west, away from Adelbert Road) list the class winners of the historic Hudson Relay, an annual Hudson-to-Cleveland run which has ended at the building's front steps for 80 years. The Monroe Curtis cup, given to the relay's winning class, is inscribed, "This race is not the ordinary run of experience."
