Ward Guest House and the President's Home


Presidents's Home

The new President's Home and Guest House, was completed in 1930.  It hosted many visiting notables and speakers at Baxter Seminary.  After Dr. and Mrs. Upperman moved in to this, their new home, the space freed up in the Activity Hall was used for additional class rooms, a larger library, and the Commercial Department.  The Activity Hall became the girls dormitory and was renamed to IVY Hall. 

The President's Home was open to students at any time.  Students met, sang, attended club meetings, listened to classical music, viewed paintings of significance, had conversations about ideas instead of things, prepared for forensics competitions, and much more.
