Bare Residence Hall for men was dedicated on May 20, 1970, honoring the memory and generosity to the College of D.M. Bare. Mr. Bare was a member of the Churches of God and a wealthy paper manufacturer. It is estimated that he gave more money to the College in its first 50 years then any other donor. In 1921, he purchased a house on College Street for use as a men's dormitory, originally intended for ministerial and religious education students. The house originally was located where Renninger is now and was moved to the site currently occupied by Myers Residence Hall.
