WylieHallCirca1891-s.jpg - Wylie Hall, pictured, and Owen Hall were built in 1884 partly of bricks from the burned down Science Hall (seen previously). Wylie Hall was named after IU's first president Andrew Wylie (1829-1851). In 1900 a fire destroyed the roof and tower; during the rebuild a third floor was added. Below is a newpaper clipping about Wylie Hall's construction. Next image is a zoomed area of the front steps.  Photo from University Archives
