Few photographs remain of this early building. The Boys Industrial, designed by Mary Rockwell Hook<\/a>, did not have a long life. It was built in 1922 and burned to the ground thirteen years later in 1935.<\/span><\/p>\n

While it was in existence, the building served a vital function in training students in practical skills such as woodworking, mechanical arts, design and drafting, surveying, etc. It was constructed to complement the Girls Industrial Building<\/a>, built near the same time and just east of the Boys Industrial structure. The two industrial buildings both had a low functional profile with many windows and large classrooms to accommodate the hands-on work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Interior views of the early building can be found in the Campus Life and Work<\/em>\u00a0photographs<\/a> and depict many of the activities that took place within the structure. Few exterior views of the building exist.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
