 +====== Campus plan 1908 ======
 +
 +The Boston architectural firm of Cooper and Bailey were hired to draft a campus plan in 1908, which featured a dramatic, but never-to-be-realized alteration of the [[buildings:p:pond|campus pond]], a new "agricultural group" of buildings on the northwestern edge of campus, and a set of new buildings on the hill flanking a new administration building.  North is to the left in their rendering of campus.
