Buildings, Gates, Susquehanna University, Conservatory of Music Building
The house of Susquehanna's fifth president, Dr. Dimm, was purchased by the University in 1920. The home was used as the Music Conservatory until the construction of the Landes Gateway, which required that it be demolished in 1959. Shown in the background is the University Library which had been expanded in 1958.
Buildings, Universities & colleges, Heilman Hall, Susquehanna University, Spangler, Mary Heilman
Built on old potato fields, a new music building was constructed with the help of the centennial appeal. The building was dedicated in 1958 and was named Heilman Hall in recognition of Mary Heilman Spangler, who had donated a large sum in honor of her father and brother. Shown in this image are students on their way to class in the new building.
