Classmates in Joiner Hall

|
During our Mini-Reunion at Lake Wheeler on August 19,
2006, Louise gave us a
large envelope with vintage pictures and newspaper clippings. With all the
hectic
projects going on for this website, I managed to make time for these undated
newspaper clippings believed to be from The Morganton Herald.

Joiner Hall Today
(June 6th, 2007)

As previously reported, roof leaks
continue to disintegrate the unoccupied buildings on
campus. Same day pictures of Goodwin Hall can be seen
here.


(March 9th, 2007)

Even though all of the buildings on campus are listed within
the NCSD Historic District, there are
no funds available to preserve unoccupied structures. As you can see, the
windows on the upper
left floor are deteriorating inwards due to roof leaks. Rainwater has
accumulated on the
basement floors rising as high as 3 to 5 inches destroying surplus items,
mostly old and unused
desktop PCs.

Joiner Hall Blue Ridge Community Action says sign under the
right window.


The year 1930 indicates when this building was built.

This picture was taken by peeking through the glass at the
front door.

Situated between Goodwin Hall on the left and Joiner Hall on
the right,
Joiner Gym is the only simplistic designed building on campus. Before
McCord Hall
(aka SUB/Student Union Building) was built, many
Jr-Sr Proms memories were made here. |
