The Biological Laboratory, completed in 1920, is adequate in size and
arrangements for housing comfortably all the classes in Biology. The
building is provided freely with electricity, gas, and water. The equipment
consists of compound microscopes of the best types, microtomes,
paraffin ovens, incubators, sterilizers, and other apparatus required for
general and advanced work. The departmental library contains a good
working collection of biological texts and books of reference, as well as
files of the more important journals.
