1927
This photo of North Gate appeared in the 1927 annual yearbook Instano. Weyandt Hall would later occupy the area to the right of this "gate" entrance into campus and the area to the right on the other side of this gate. The road seen immediately on the other side of the gate no longer exists and basically is in the same location as the present entrance walkway into Weyandt Hall. Oakland Avenue can be seen through the gate in the distance and these brick pillars were moved alongside Oakland Avenue toward the left in this photo. They were there in 1976 and then replaced later by a larger brick entrance (in the early 1980's?). Especially notice the white plaque that says the gate is a gift from the class of 1900 in the year 1920. There is a plaque on each of the two sides of the gate and these two plaques are now embedded in the newer brick entrance.
