The main building is the home of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity chapter at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. In the1970's Glenn Home was the location of one of the most abusive orphanages in USA history. The abuses included psychological, emotional, physical and/or sexual on children as young as 10 years of age. To this day Vigo County, the Methodist Church of Indiana and other have not acknowledged the atrocities even though many of the former residents have come forward with their stories. https://www.facebook.com/glennhomeabuse It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.
