Did you know that the Wesley Taylor Dorms used to be barracks for cadets?

During World War II, the college operated a civilian flight school preparing pilots for service in the armed forces.  Even before the United States entered the war, pilots were being trained in expectation of our being involved.  The dorm now named after Wesley Taylor served as the cadet barracks.  Here are some pictures from the 1941 and 1942 yearbooks.

We're proud of our EAC alumni and their service to our country!
