McKenzie Building was originally the Library and Arts building, and was named for A.E. McKenzie, a local businessman and supporter of the College. The George T. Richardson Centre, which includes the Evans Theatre and the John E. Robbins Library, was completed in 1993.

The general campus photographs were placed in this sub-series because the composition of the images made it difficult to place them with individual buildings.
