The home of John C. Calhoun and Thomas G. Clemson, the Calhoun Man- sion began with only two rooms. At er many additions, it now serves as a na- tional historical landmark.

Another of the originol buildings, God- frey Hall stood on campus like a tower of ivy. Later, the ivy was removed to avoid damage to the building. The engineering department had its home in this building in 1921. Standing where the Rhodes Engineering Building now stands, it was replaced by Riggs Hall. Next door to Hardin Hall in 1910 was the old post office. It was later torn down as Hardin expanded to make room for a parking lot. The first building on campus, Hardin Hall originally had a hip roof. This roof was later replaced with the flat one which currently adorns the building. 13
