Before I started this course, I used the Wikipedia website to find information about famous actors and rappers.

Looking at my contributions I can tell that the researcher has taken the time research many topics. The researcher easily goes to Google and copies information from electronic references.

Overall in the end I should learn how to put articles in the my own words.

Music Hall[edit]

This Victorian Gothic building, built in 1878 and initially named Assembly Hall, was designed to house an 800-seat auditorium, a library, and a clock tower. Dedicated on March 2, 1880, the building originally held conventions, dances, and commencement ceremonies, along with its primary purpose of a library. After the library moved to a different building on campus, a portion of the hall was assigned to the School of Music in 1900. Shortly after renovations in the early 1900s, the building was officially named Music Hall in 1910.
