Jerry - the infirmary became a language lab after we left. The infirmary was moved to the mansion, so the guys could be sick and scared at the same time. (The mansion was VERY haunted.)

Nauseous is only partly correct. The fire doors from the 3rd Fl dorm opened onto the top of the chapel & gym respectively. The boy came out the door atop the chapel, walked to the back of the chapel, and was found on the pavement behind the chapel. The school was a high school seminary at that time, used in the summer as a camp. Salesian's closing had nothing to do with that terrible accident.

Freshman...sophomore and Junior classrooms on the secon floor along with three private superior rooms (right middle) and the infirmary (left)
There was a statue of St. Micheal on this level going from the study hall to the chapel of St. Micheal...we used to touch the head of satan under St. Mike's foot....
I lived in that cell on the top floor next to the sinks...

I'm not sure about THIS particular building (there are over a dozen of them like this one). I DO know they were still using some of them until the mid 80's though.

I bicycled past the old "E" buildings when I was a freshman in High School, and decided to check them out with a few friends. I graduated High School in 1986. That makes it 23 years really.

Can't believe any curtains are still hanging, very piecefull room....
I painted this fireplace in the summer of 1969. The room was in bad shape and was only used for storage. Several of the seminarians refinished the floor and painted to turn the room into useable space.
I went to high school at this school from 1965 to 1969. It's really a shock to see what happened to this place.
