Bio History Note

In 1946 there were many returning students that were veterans or CPSers.  Housing was at a premium.  Some married couples were lucky to get rooms in trailers parked near campus.  This couple found an alternative solution, a brand new chicken coop placed in Professor Paul Halladay's back yard!
