    Description

    This black and white photographic postcard features photographs of the five first buildings on campus. Picken Hall is on the left. Rarick Hall is in the center on top. The old gymnasium became the library and it is next to the Old Power Plant in the picture on the right. Sheridan Coliseum is in the center on the bottom. The old gymnasium is labeled as the "Library Hall." The library was originally housed in Picken Hall. During the construction of Sheridan Coliseum, the library moved to the old gymnasium.
