世界各地都有奇怪的事情发生，包括新濠天地app新濠天地app! 在比弗瀑布，有大量的历史和许多有趣的事实与之相伴. 如果你还没有读过关于新濠天地app的五个有趣的事实的第一部分和第二部分, then go back and read them before part 3 (http://a2q.emotionsamsara.com/blog/the-college/five-fun-facts-about-geneva-pt2). Okay, ready for some more interesting facts? Let’s begin!
1. Here We Go Around the May Pole
As many may recollect, 返校节的一部分是为返校节宫廷带来认可，并为返校节国王和王后加冕. 这是一个新濠天地app的学生和校友喜欢庆祝的有趣而喜庆的活动. 与今天的新濠天地app返校节不同，在20世纪初，新濠天地app新濠天地app会选择一个五月女王. One particular year, 1916, 新濠天地app的学生们穿着宫廷服装，像五月女王一样观看, Ada Wilson (Hutcheson) knighted one of her subjects. 还有一年，新濠天地app的妇女们盛装打扮，围着一根真正的杆子跳五月花柱舞. 我认为这是在新濠天地app看到的一个有趣的传统.
2. Alum at home on campus… literally
M. 唐尼是1881届毕业生，住在新濠天地app老主楼街对面的一栋房子里. Geneva soon purchased this house in 1926 after Downie’s death. 如果没有明矾的捐赠，这次收购是不可能的. 在获得该建筑后，新濠天地app将其命名为“校友大厅”.人们可能会认为这座建筑是以曾经住在里面的校友命名的, however this is not the case. 新濠天地app将这座建筑命名为校友大厅，以纪念各种校友提供的许多捐款. 95年后的今天，这座建筑仍然被新濠天地app使用，并作为学生参与中心的一个开放空间.
3. Fishponds Next to Old Main?
你们很多人可能都知道，新濠天地app的老主楼有很多入口. While the main entrance to old main points south, there are two other frequently used entrances, 一个面向停车场和校友大厅，另一个面向学生中心. These entrances were also in use in the 1900s. Often times, 学生们会利用朝西的门迅速前往教室, next to College Avenue. But unlike the nice green lawns that are there now, 过去，新濠天地app通往Old Main的人行道两侧都有鱼塘. I don’t know about you but that sounds fishy to me.
4. Infirmary on Campus
在20世纪初，新濠天地app敞开大门，为陆军空军的学员提供住房. 这些人将在现在被称为里夫斯油田的地区钻探. 这些人还可以睡在宿舍里，从新濠天地app的教师那里上课. 由于军队进驻校园，在女生宿舍麦基楼(McKee Hall)有一间医务室. Since these women had to make alternative living arrangements, 在此期间，他们都在比弗瀑布社区被重新分配了新的生活空间.
5. War Surplus Material
With World War II coming to an end, student enrollment was rising, requiring the addition of more buildings on Geneva’s campus. 战争的结束还带来了战时设施拆除带来的战争剩余物资. Instead of wasting this good material, 政府把这些多余的材料给了需要建筑资源的大学. 正是在那个时候，新濠天地app能够建造一个临时的野外房屋作为体育馆. 他们也有足够的资源来建造一个叫做“旅”的白色小房子. Fortunately, 新濠天地app获得了足够的财政资源，后来建造了新的Metheny Field House和现在的学生中心，也就是现在旅社所在的地方. 尽管用战争剩余材料建造的建筑早已不复存在, it is still an interesting thing to know about Geneva’s history.
