T. Sedgwick, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Stanley Coulter Hall of Biology was erected during 1916-17 upon the site of the old Science Hall (p. 17 I. The Inundations were laid during July, 1916, and work was continued throughout the fall and winter months. It- two stories and well lighted basement arc built in the form of a square U. The main body of the build- ing has a frontage of one hundred seventy-five feet and a width of sixty feet, while two wings thirty-five feet wide by sixty feet in length extend toward the north. Numerous windows in the body and wings afford an abundance of light for class-rooms and laboratories. The red tile roof, rich maroon colored brick and Bedford stone trimmings make this one of the most hand- some buildings on the campus. The floors are constructed of hollow tile and reinforced concrete and are finished in Italian terazzo surface. Doors and all other woodwork are finished in dark oak and in contrast with this the plain brick walk, partitions and ceilings are tinted in light cream color throughout. Vacuum heat system with temperature regulation, excellent artificial illumination and a system of inter- telephones add to the comfort and convenience of the building. The total floor area is 47,000 square feet; there are fifty-six rooms, ten of which are large laboratories. The building has been named Stanley Coulter Hall of Biology by the Trustees upon the universal request of the alumni in recognition of Professor Coulter's thirty years of valued service to the .University. It- cost i- $100,000. STANLEY COULTKR HALL OF BIOLOGY iiiiiimiiininimi - .iiniiini niinii Pa fie Five Divisions of the Department of Biology F«n i : : :omy Dean of the School of Science.

Jt was erected on the site of the old Power Plant during the summer of 1916 from materials salvaged from the old Science Hall. It affords room for the laboratories in general biology, botany and zoology, stock rooms and departmental offices. The Dean of the School of Science and the University Physician have their offices in this building. The other divisions of the department have been assigned laboratories in other buildings, as follows: Bac- teriology in Farm .Mechanics building; Physiology and Anatomy in the Veterinary building and Forestry in Prac- tical Mechanics building. Recitations and lectures have been held in rooms that were available in the buildings named or in Smith Hall, and other> devoted to Agriculture, Chemistry, Physics and Pharmacy.

Its construction was made possible by a legislative appropriation of $1500. The aim in construction was to secure the greatest possible space for the sum available, therefore the major portion was one story, and the front portion was made two stories high to provide for a lecture room on the second floor. The building was devoted to the Department of Engineering, including the shops. In 1894, the new Mechanical building was erected, after which the west wing and front of the building were used by the Department of Chemistry, and the east wing by the Department of Biology. In \')(j(>, the new Chemistry building was erected and in 1907 the east wing of the building, vacated by Chem- istry, was used as a drafting room by the Department of Practical Mechanics until they moved into the new shops erected in 19 10. After 1 9 10. the whole of the building was given over to the work of the Department of Biology until June, [916, when it was removed to provide a site for Stanley Coulter Hall. ! 1 . .
