History[edit]
This campus first started out as a detention camp for military prisoners. It was one of the spots in the United States where WW2 German and Italian P.O.W.s were held. Later the state needed more space for its mentally disabled and converted and built buildings on the campus making it into a state hospital. In 2002 the campus was shut down.
