Question: Which Virginia university is home to the oldest college building in the U.S.?

Answer: William & Mary is home to the oldest college building still standing in the U.S.: the Sir Christopher Wren Building, which was constructed between 1695 and 1700. Built before Williamsburg was officially founded, this landmark has survived three devastating fires and has remained the heart of the university for over 300 years, still hosting classes and faculty offices today.
