3non Ulall Die Geschichte des Proseminars ist eine Geschichte des Wachstums und der Ausbreitung. Um Raum fuer die stets zunehmende Zahl der Studenten zu bieten, mussten immer wieder neue Gebaeude errichtet werden. Das neueste Gebaeude auf dem Seminarplatz ist Irion Hall, ein Bau, dessen Errichtung von der General- synode, die 1909 in Burlington tagte, beschlossen wurde. Wie Eltern sich ueber das gesunde Gedeihen ihrer Kinder freuen und gern fuer ihre Beduerfnisse sorgen, so haben sich auch die Gemeinden ueber das Wachstum des Proseminars gefreut und haben gern und willig die Mittel zur Errichtung des neuen (jebaeudes bei- getragen. Irion Hall konnte daher schulden frei am iS. Juni 191 2 eingeweigh werden. Mit seiner Erbauung ist dem Mangel an Raum fuer viele Jahre abge- holfen worden. E s enthaelt Studier-und Schlafzimmer fuer etwa 100 Studenten, die neue Kapelle, Turnhalle und Bibliothek. Das Gebaeude ist aus roten Back- steinen aufgefuehrt und mit weissem Sandstein geziert. Es besteht aus einem Zentralbau mit zwei Fluegeln und ist mit der Front nach Sueden gegen das Haupt- gebaeude gerichtet. Die Kapelle erstreckt sich nach Norden von der Mitte des Hauptteils. Unter der Kapelle, im Basement befindet sich dicTurnhallc. Ebenso ist die Bibliothek im Basement untergebracht. Die innere iMnricht ung ist dur- chaus modern und praktisch. Wenn man bedenkt, wie die ersten Studenten des Proseminars sich haben behelfen muessen, so sind die Studenten, welche die Vorteile dieses Gebaeudes geniesscn duerfen, gewiss gluecklicli ii iieinicn. 13
The Ccllege Library is the most expensive type of library, collated as it is for a disproportionately small group of accredited users. 1 he justification for this is that these relatively few users are in training for productive scholarship, for intellectual leadership. The college library touches both faculty and students in every department of the institution; this touch should be vital, stimulating, and informed. It should supplement and enrich the formal process of instruction; it should provide and make easily accessible for both students and faculty, standard cultural and recreative reading wholly apart from the fixed curriculum. It should give some heed to furnishing the materials for personal research by members of the I ' acuity. It is with pride that we say our library has fulfilled its office as stated above. The five thousand bound volumes which fill its shelves are of the best that can be picked from the many thousands that the publishers offer. That it touches the student body in the right way is proven by the extensive use to which the books are put. The magazine department is also well taken care of. Forty of the best weekly, monthly and quarterly magazines come regularly. They keep the student informed on all phases of modern development in science, art, and literature. To take care of the man} ' different branches of library work a comparatively large number of persons are required. A staff of twelve students under the super- vision of two head student librarians and a facult - librarian have charge of this work. The staff for 1915-16 was as follows; Head faculty librarian; Prof. Schmale. Head student librarians; C. Klein, O. Koch, 0. Flohr. Assistants; W. Kock, W. Paschen, J. Kaney, Th. Langhorst, H. Bloesch. T. Schlundt, M. Albrecht, E. Kock, A. Runge. 14
