==== College of Business ====
Lehigh introduced business and economics classes in 1893, with the first dedicated classes in economics being offered in 1897 and the first professor of economics being hired by the school, John L. Stewart, in 1898. Stewart is credited with creating the College of Business in 1918, establishing its original courses and teaching most of the classes himself. The college's inaugural class of 1922 numbered just 77.<ref name="business history">{{cite web |title=History of the College of Business Administration |url=https://www.lehigh.edu/library/speccoll/business_history_2.pdf |website=lehigh.edu |access-date=28 February 2024}}</ref> Through the 1930s the College of Business Administration stayed consistent, with around 10 professors and 350 students, and in 1938 was accredited by the [[Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business]], with enrollment that year jumping to 465, or 25% of the total student body. In 1952 the College of Business Administration began offering a five-year course in [[Industrial engineering]] and business, as well as graduate courses for [[Master of Business Administration]] degrees and was expanded to include [[Master of Science]] degrees by 1964. In 1957 the college moved from Coppée Hall to the purpose-built Drown Hall.<ref name="business history" />
