Alumni Hall, 1853–1911
Davis also designed this castellated brownstone building at High and Elm, where Lanman-Wright Hall now stands. Its ground floor was a single room used for the written examinations first instituted in 1851. Upstairs were the libraries of the College’s literary societies: Linonia, Brothers-in-Unity, and Calliope. When the building was torn down, Skull and Bones acquired the towers and rebuilt them behind their tomb, near the entrance to the Art Gallery sculpture garden.
