"At the height of the last-minute campaign to save the college, its president dressed in red flannels and led a parade in which United States Senator William E. Jenner rode an elephant, Governor Henry Schricker drove a span of mules, and scantily clad coeds peddled doughnuts at $1 each.

[6] After the college closed, the old Administration Building and the Chapel were torn down, but Hargrave Hall and the C.C.

The building was used for Ivy Tech classes in conjunction with Danville Community High School and is referred to as Central Normal Campus.
