Mrs. Harth, originally from Williamsburg, now resides at Fremont Place, Los Angeles, California. For years she has assisted students at University of the Cumberlands. Her fame has long been associated with and involved in the development of the University. Mr. H. H. Fuson, Lenora Fuson Harth’s brother, served as a Trustee of the University for 41 years.

“The Fuson family is prominent, and we are grateful to receive this stellar gift from Mrs. Harth with which to construct this needed residence hall. Words simply fail to communicate our gratitude because this is an answered prayer and a dream come true,” said University President Jim Taylor.
