This program tells quite the history of Finch! The court was raised because of a cinder floor until ‘68. Adventure Seminars was once the men’s gymnastics venue & the Finch Pool was drained and ROTC repurposed the space into offices @cmuniversity @cmualumni @cmuehs @clarke_Library

President Anspach placed cornerstones in 10 buildings during his presidency. One of those was Health & Physical Education, renamed for Ron Finch in ‘62. The trowel used to install the cornerstone is currently on display in Finch! @cmuehs @cmualumni @clarke_library @cmuniversity
