Further Information The photograph is in fair condition. There are signs of heavy handling. Scratches and splotches (fingerprints?) mark the front of the photograph, and the corners have some bending. In the white margin underneath the photograph, a caption is written in black ink stating: "May Pole -- Westminster Day". On the back side, imposed over a stamped, faded number "835," more black ink states "Return to Westminster College". Further writing in pencil says "#1027", "2½ x 4" (the dimensions of the photo), "100 [?]", and "[?] Sugarhouse [?]". Erected in 1926 during President Herbert W. Reherd's Administration, Foster Hall was built initially as a men's dormitory. Forster Hall was named after an old classmate of Reherd's from his college days, Robert Hubie Foster. Most contributions came from his family in Ottumwa, Iowa. The four story hall housed over a hundred students and for over thirty years it served as the men's dormitory until the erection of Hogle Hall in 1959 and Carleson Hall in 196
