Notes:
Normal Hall, a boarding hall, was built in 1869. It originally housed 54 students and was enlarged in 1873 to accommodate 148 students. According to the Normal School catalog from the late 1870s, "No pains are spared to make the Hall in every respect a home for the pupils. It has a beautiful location, and every room is pleasant. A reading Room, supplied with newspapers, periodicals, and some of the best new books, and a Gymnasium, are provided for the daily use of the students."
