The Philomathean Room Located on the third floor of Towers Hall, the Philomathean Room is what remains of the literary societies that were once at Otterbein. It was a meeting location for the original group, the Otterbein Lyceum, which was founded in 1851. They organized debates and formed libraries among other things. The last of them ended up disbanding by 1930s. The room was restored in 1982 to honor all of the societies and their contributions. The inscription above the president’s chair states that “To question (inquire) is our job.”
