The implementation of the Specialized Army Training Program in 1918 necessitated additional housing for male students. This building was quickly constructed to the west of the Forestry Building (visible to the right) and later used as a dormitory for men named Poling Hall. The dorm rooms held from two to six men, and the basement area included a cafeteria. The dormitory was used until 1928, when a new Men's Dormitory (now Weatherford Hall) was built on the location.
