<mods:abstract>A photograph featuring the fireplace in the foyer of Springfield College's social and dining hall, Woods Hall. The fireplace is decorated with a Mount Holyoke pennant hung above the mantle as well as two mandolins with a beer stein between them on the mantle. Other decorations include canoe paddles mounted to the wall next to the fireplace, tennis rackets above it and several pennants from various schools including Dartmouth, Brown and Williams hanging from the ceiling. Recognizing the need for greater social opportunities for the students of the Training School, Mrs. Eleanor S. Woods provided the funds and Woods Hall was erected on May 23, 1904 and dedicated on September 28 of that same year as a social and dining hall on campus. Woods, a member of the Merriam family (Webster’s dictionary) donated $18,000 for the project. The central feature of Woods Hall was a dining room which could accommodate 125 or more guests. The first floor of the building also contained a parlor while the second floor was designated for dorm rooms. The building was renovated a number of times during its existence, the most significant renovation occurring in 1961 at which time it received a complete facelift leaving it unrecognizable as the original Woods Hall. In 2008, Woods Hall was demolished to make way for the construction of the Richard B. Flynn Campus Union which was dedicated on February 4, 2010.</mods:abstract>
