*The SLE is the renaissance of the Institute's "Chautauqua Assembly" which, at its height, ran from 1886 through 1896, during which all of the Institute's historical buildings were constructed. President Grover Cleveland, having married a woman 28 years his junior, served twice during that time and William H. Harrison in between. Learn the "behind the scenes" of the old Camp Meetings. (Enjoy faith and history? Register for T9 Spiritual History of Silver Lake Institute which begins its run after lunch on Thursday from 1:30 to 3:20.)
