Alumni Hall falls after life as a weather station, a women's dorm and an ad- ministration building. fx 1 xxl 9 'WX r wg up 'U-l - n t if, The library stands as a transition between the old and the new campus buildings. Old Campus Suggests Friendliness, Tradition Our old campus, where creative works spring from the boundaries of tradition, dates back to 1897. Bradley Hall and the School of Horology stood alone in the days of our foiimder, Mrs. Lydia Moss Bradley. A third floor cafeteria in B Hall later be- came the home economics laboratiuries. That same dining room and cafeteria wa moved to the basement of the building and nally occu- pied special quarters known to students as the Wigwam. Until 1950, Bradley Hall ground floor held the school's reference library. Ahcording to 1946 alumni, it proved to be a socializing area TOO. Siepert and Duryea originally housed a bi- cycle shop. Bradley adopted them for classroom use in 1912. Alumni Hallls life began in 1904 as a U. S. Weatlier Bureau Station. A need f1or women's housing brought about its purchase in 1946. Named North Hall, the building existed as a dormitory until 1951, when it starled the six- year term as Alumni Hall. The 11181135 gym joined the Bradley family in 1909. It was not only the center for all athletic events but served also as the social' hall. Stu- dents met there for dancing, parties and bowl- ing. Robertson Memorial Fieldhouse and the li- brary were added several decades later and seemingly spearheaded the extensive building program born in 1954. They represent a transi- tion between the old and the new.
