Jewell Hall, theocenter of life on the William Jewell College campus,was built in I849. Original- ly Jewell Hall was all that existed of the campus and was the Western-most building in the U.S. At one time it housed the school library, dormitory, classrooms, Chapel, and gymnasium. Once considered the Harvard of the West, Jewell Hall was taken over by the North during' the Civil War. It was used by the Union as both a stable and a hospital. Today it is the oldest col- lege building still in use west of the Mississippi. As statuesque today as it was in l849, Jewell Hall represents the heritage and inspiration of past Jewell achievers to her students today. Tradi- tions behind Jewell Hall enable students to reach out toward goals of excellence to be achieved in the future. 0 6 .....-.-1.4 J.. .,' ,.... .-a.L....1iv:- -:ll-...tarp rrg- aa..-.'... 4-' ,.
