In 1892, the creamery offered America's first collegiate instruction in ice cream manufacture, helping make Penn State an international center for research in frozen confections. The original Creamery Bldg (1889) housed the nation's earliest extension courses in dairy science. The creamery later moved to Patterson Bldg (1904), Borland Lab (1932, expanded 1960), and the Food Science Bldg (2006), where it was renamed the Berkey Creamery in recognition of philanthropic support.
