Description	This postcard shows women gathered outside the Infirmary (First) and Students Building. This building, the first separate structure to house the School infirmary, was built in 1895. It was located next to the Wooden/Midway/Guilford Dormitory on College Avenue and was used as an infirmary until 1912 when a larger infirmary was built on campus. After 1912, this building was used for music studios, practice rooms and offices and was called "; Little Guilford."; Little Guilford was razed in 1947. The cornerstone of the Students'; Building was laid in 1902. Contributions from students, faculty, and visiting speakers allowed the completion of the three story structure in 1906.
