Photo_of_Exterior_of_New_Severance_Gymnasium_19111912.jpg

The photograph is of the exterior part of the new gymnasium. The Gym was modeled after the Smith College Gymnasium, which was common at this time. It had an interior track above a basketball court. Ropes, bucks, and exercise bars can be seen around the interior. Mr. L. H. Severance of New York provided for the gymnasium at a cost of $125,000. The gymnasium lacks the turrets shown on earlier models in the Index.
