Bennett College Razes
Three bio Buildings
Bennett College this week
bade farewell to three old
friends ? friends who had come
to be known and revered by
more than three generations of
Bennett students.
Smith Cottage, Trigg Cotta;;e
and Tobias Cottage ? three white
frame buildings, which for
more than 60 years housed
faculty and staff, were razed
this week to make room for the
new million-dollar science
building on which construction
has already begun.
The structures, which faced on
Macon Street on the West
campus, were here when Dir.
David D. Jones assumed the
presidency of the institution in
1929, and, until this month, had
housed two families and six to
eight single women each year.
Because of their proximity to
dormitories, the cottages at
tracted scores of students who
"just happened to drop in"
around meal time, ostensibly to
see one of the teachers about a
class assignment. They were, in
a sense, homes away from home
for the hungry and homesick.
Tobla Cottage was named in
I memory of Miss Blanche Tobias
who died while serving as a
member of the Bennett Jacul
t-A CottS*. wm mhZJ
former President Frank Trigg
and Smith Cottage for Mrs. Nan
Goode Smith, a long-time
| friend of the school.
Cottage residents have now
been housed elsewhere, but for
them, and for scores of return
ing alumnae, the relentless
bulldozer that destroyed these
old friends could never detroy
the pleasant thoughts of them
that will live forever in their
| memories.
