T ' g ' MT 1911 The new Infirmary, as we know it today, was first opened for inspection on March 18th. 1912 The College Chorus was organized. The completion of Senior Hall, now known as Woman ' s Building, was accomplished in t he fall of 1912. This is a handsome building, modern and convenient in every respect. In the spring of this year the first Old English Pageant was given with much success. 1913 Nineteen hundred thirteen witnessed the building of another brick dormitory. Kirk- land Hall, similar in every way to Woman ' s Building. 1914 A new pipe organ was installed in the Chapel of Students ' Building during this year. The standard of the College was raised. Heretofore the number of units required for entrance was eleven and a half. This year the number was raised to twelve and a half. Perhaps the event bearing most on the lives of the students was the beginning of a new form of government, known as Student Government. This was a great onward step, and the students, as well as the faculty were justly proud of the achievement. The adop- tion of this new form of government occurred in the spring. 1915 The College authorities, determined to make the College a first-class institution, again raised the number of units required for entrance. This year the number was increased another half unit. 1916-1917 Pageant year again. At last the goal for which those interested in the work of the College have been look- ing forward so long has been reached. We now have a fourteen-unit entrance basis. This makes us rank among the first-class colleges of the South. This year we have seven hundred twenty-five students enrolled, and a Senior class consisting of eighty-two members. The Faculty Council has a membership of eighty- eight. There are now fourteen buildings on the campus, in contrast with the six of 1892. All of these buildings are fitted up with modern conveniences.
