Taft Hall Above: Taft Hall as it looked in 1895. Renovations and additions were coming, and by 1913 Taft (in- set) had grown new space when of- fices were built around the courtyard. Left: Although looks may be de- ceiving, Taft is basically the same building it was over 70 years ago. In the space where the courtyard once stood exists the International Coffee House, and above the Coffee House are the offices of the Honors Center and the Amateur Radio Club. All the original stonework is still intact, and a brief visit to the building still shows the doorways and windows that were surrounded when the reno- vations took place. 27
