Drinker House

The Henry S. Drinker House was constructed in 1902 on the campus of Haverford College.

[1] Drinker was originally built for Haverford professor William Comfort, who became president of the College in 1917, and later served as home to other important professors.

In 1961, it was renovated to serve as the school's music building; it was renamed for Henry S. Drinker '00, a former cricket player at Haverford who went on to a distinguished law and academic career and to become a noted musicologist.

[2] The house has two floors and holds 18 residents, traditionally members of the baseball team.

In 2006, Jeffrey Suell '08 organized a Drinker Toy Drive to collect presents for Operation Santa Claus, a charitable organization in Philadelphia that distributes toys to underprivileged children during the holiday season.
