The foundation stone of Aitchison College in Lahore was laid on 3 November 1886 by the Viceroy Earl of Dufferin and Ava16. This event took place in the presence of a large and distinguished gathering, including the Duke and Duchess of Connaught, the Countess of Dufferin, Sir Charles Aitchison (the Lieutenant Governor of Punjab), and many ruling chiefs of the province. Later that month it was renamed Aitchison College to honor Sir Charles.
