In January 1872 Isaac Rich kicked the bucket, leaving the tremendous majority of his home to a trust that would go to Boston University following ten years of development while the University was sorted out. The greater part of this endowment comprised of land all through the center of the city of Boston and was evaluated at more than $1.5 million. Kilgore portrays this as the biggest single gift to an American school or college to that time. By December, notwithstanding, the Great Boston Fire of 1872 had pulverized everything except one of the structures Rich had left to the University, and the insurance agencies with which they had been safeguarded were bankrupt. The estimation of his domain, when swung over to the University in 1882, was half what it had been in 1872. Therefore, the University was not able form its thought about grounds on Aspinwall Hill and the area was sold piecemeal as advancement locales. Road names in the territory, including Claflin Road, Claflin Path, and University Road, are the main remaining confirmation of University proprietorship around there. 

In the wake of accepting a year's pay development to permit him to seek after his exploration in 1875, Alexander Graham Bell, then a teacher at the college, concocted the phone in a Boston University research center. In 1876, Borden Parker Bowne was named educator of logic.

He is known for his commitments to personalism, a philosophical branch of liberal philosophy. The development he drove is frequently alluded to as Boston Personalism. 

The college proceeded with its custom of openness in this period.

Trying to bring together a geologically scattered school and empower it to take an interest in the improvement of the city, school president Lemuel Murlin masterminded that the school purchase the present grounds along the Charles River.
