Historical Information

The Men's Residence Hall Annex A was acquired from Alpha Xi Delta sorority in 1938 for $22,500. The building provided additional residence facilities for twenty men. The house was operated in conjunction with the Franklin Levering Cary Quadrangle West Hall under the direction of the Men's Residence Halls. In 1946, the building was maintained as a dormitory for women and as an infirmary. In 1948, the annexes could no longer be used for student housing because the placement of fire escapes was too expensive.
