12 July

I finished my first round of the Campus Photos today. However, it is not finished - the slides that I have to return to require more research, or they are numbered and described, but not in the database yet, so I will have to scan them.

After I finished the first round before lunch, I returned to do research on Waller Hall. After reading sections of the Gatke and Gregg Chronicles, I then started building a history of Waller in the attempt to 1) discover when the Waller did or did not have a southern elevation and 2) find out when the 2nd Waller, which had the Mansard Roof, did or did not have an ugly tower on top of it. In order to build this history, I am going through and cross-referencing the dates and photos of Waller that are in the campus photographs collection. Once I've finished doing that, I will look through the yearbooks and bulletins as well to get more precise dates and explanations.
