The chemistry department was housed in a basement across the street when the college was located in the San Fernando Building, and this arrangement was not well appreciated by the students. When the college moved to Griffin Avenue the chemistry laboratory as housed on the third floor on the west side of the build- ing. There was a lecture room in the front and the laboratory immediately behind it. It was a very pleasant laboratory for the chemistry students, not so well appreciated by the physiology department which was housed immediately below. Then, as now, filter papers and towels had a way of stopping up sinks and then there would be wrathful visits from the physiology students who were being deluged by the overflow. With the classes steodily increasing in size the laboratory overflowed in another way — with port of the class being housed in the bacteriology laboratory across the hall. As other classes were becoming crowded also, the college constructed the modern laboratory buildings in the back that have been previously mentioned. Piige Stventcen
