here this week.
Work on the law school building,

Greenville, S. C.
Alumni Donate Funds
The law building is being built
from funds donated by alumni of
the university, and not by appropria

new building will be named for
Harold Hirsch, prominent Atlanta
lawyer and university alumnus. The
present law school building is located
on the northeast corner of Broad
and Lumpkin streets. Just across
from the university campus.
Funds for the erection of the new
dormitory were obtained from the
principal of the Charles McDonald
Brown loan scholarship fund, which
now amounts to $317,923.52. The
scholarship fund was donated in
1882 by Joseph E. Brown, Civil war
