Merrill B. Iams was also a Biologist.
The Department of Science in 1939 was housed in Leonard Hall: "The Science Majors must also be accredited with the achievement of having a skeleton and stuffed animals looking out of the windows of the south side of Leonard Hall, as well as with the very odoriferous odors that float through the whole building." This Leonard Hall burned in 1952 and was replaced with a new Leonard Hall in 1953. A photograph of the old Leonard Hall and construction of the new Leonard Hall was published in the 1954 yearbook.
