The architectural firm of Kuhn & Newcomer designed numerous projects including the Nurse's Home and the Woman's Dorm (Unit 2), both constructed from 1948 to 1950.  Perspective drawings of both buildings were included in a spiral bound notebook found on eBay.  Selected pages from the notebook are shown below.
