The now-defunct School of
Dentistry, here pictured
at its 1909-1928 downtown
location in the old St.
Louis Club at 29th and Locust
streets, led a nomadic existence.
The school had three different
locations over eight years
before finally landing at
the St. Louis Club, where
it remained for almost 20
years. The school almost
didn't survive the 1950s;
in fact, a news release
had been drawn up in 1953
to announce the closing
-- but it was saved at the
bell. But after the 1990-91
school year, in light of
rising costs and falling
enrollments, the School
of Dentistry closed its
doors for the last time
after nearly 125 years of
operation, 100 of which
were with the University.
