Gault Alumni Center (1941; completely remodeled in 1993),
at the corner of Beall Avenue and Pine Street, was designed and constructed
by H.C. Frick and is the former Overholt residence. The building housed
the Department of Music from 1941 until 1987 and bore the name of Karl
Merz, the first director of Wooster’s Conservatory of Music (1882-1890).
From 1987 until 1992, it served as a residence for students. Generous
gifts from alumni in the 50-year reunion classes of 1936, 1938, 1940,
and 1941, as well as a major gift from Mr. and Mrs. Gault, made it possible
to renovate the building completely during the 1992-1993 academic year
to serve as a home for the Alumni Association and for use by the Alumni
and Development Offices.
