Show View of the East side entrance of Foster Hall. There is a sidewalk leading up to the staircase where three males are sitting, but the sidewalk stops short of going anywhere. The area immediately around the building is dirt, while the rest of the foreground is a grass lawn. Behind Foster on both sides are some trees. |

The photo is it good condition. It has been mounted onto a large beige frame. 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 1962. With introduction of the new dormitories Foster was primarily used the same as it is used today, for classrooms and offices. Many renovation plans were made over the years, but the crowning renovation that serves the hall to this day was made possible by Berenice Bradshaw in 1991.
