The Seminar buildings were constructed in 1941 as three distinct classroom buildings separated by courtyards, at a cost of $80,000. Isabel Walbridge served as Dormitory Hostess for Allan Spivey Hall in the 1940s and 1950s.

The Seminar buildings were re-configured in the 1960s and now house college business offices.

Visitors are welcome on the campus. Please park in marked visitor parking, or along Johnson Avenue, on the west side of campus. Walking tour brochures with maps are available here:
