Psi: An Attractive Alternative For The Basic Speech Communication Course, William J. Seiler

Department of Communication Studies: Faculty Publications

More Than Just A Place To Live: A History Of Raymond, Love, Heppner, And Piper Halls, Jay Curtiss

Archives & Special Collections

Fifty years ago, in-the fall of 1932, Raymond Hall opened-to students for the first time. To commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of this event, I took it upon myself to compile a history of the buildings and to write biographies of the people after which those buildings are named.

When I began working on this little piece of nostalgia, I didn't realize how much work would be involved, and how long it would ultimately take. Now, nearly three years later, my work is compete, at least as far as I am willing to go.

Many people have asked me why I …
