About the Cover |
![]() |
The aging administration building at Walla Walla College has served the campus in many ways since 1892; in fact, its 109-year life is a model of recycling efficiency. As it stands in 2001, the building reflects the involvement of the college's founders, who built the building in 1892; its patrons, citizens of Walla Walla who donated money for a substantial building to enhance the entire valley; and the college administration, who remodeled the front portion of the building in 1919 after a disastrous fire. In 1892 the building housed the entire college: students, faculty,
elementary and secondary day students, a cafeteria, bakery, laundry, powerhouse, classrooms, science labs, a chapel that served as a community church and administrative offices. When the roof and fourth story were destroyed by fire and water damage in 1919, the college administration widened the building by 58 feet, created a new entrance, and lowered the roof line. For over 20 years the rear wings continued to serve as dormitories, later housing student government offices, academic departments and a radio station, KGTS-FM. The space the building occupies will be transformed once again when a new, modern structure replaces the existing one, its design combining architectural
features of the 1892 building and its 1919 reconstruction.
