It may be added that the city of New Ulm was induced to construct a sanitary sewer in the valley under the college hill at a cost of $200,000. The result of these building operations is the complex of buildings we have today. We have a well-planned campus, well-constructed and well-equipped buildings. We have a modern recitation building, 150 by 208 feet, with thirteen modern classrooms, a fine auditorium and gymnasium, and an adequate library. In fact, it is only since this building has been completed that our library has come into its own. Its 7,000 volumes are now accessible to students. It has excellent equipment for the reading room. This one feature alone, the library, would be worth the cost of the building. The outward design of the building is the English school type. The building is of plain, but very substantial construction. The large Wirshing organ, purchased in 1914, was supplied with an electric action and placed into the auditorium. The gymnasium is a great improvement over the 'one in the basement of the boy's dormitory. It is large and well-lighted; it supplies room enough for one college-size basketball court, and two high-school-size basketball courts. In connection, it offers locker rooms and shower 66
