The previous inhabitants of Hampshire House were commuting, non-residential students who had used half of that building as a social and study space. They had agreed to leave Hampshire House so that the members of Smith\u2019s UNITY organizations would have a temporary multicultural center to use. The heads of UNITY had held off on signing their contract with the administration to use Hampshire House until the Green Street building purchase was finalized.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A Union-News (Springfield) article on the purchase can be found<\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/316\/2018\/10\/1990.11.07.-Smith-acquires-building.jpg\"> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">here<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p>[Last updated on October 31, 2018]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November 7, 1990 Administration buys new building (Date is for when it was reported in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1118,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[102,87,54,84,119,64,78,73,62,104],"class_list":["post-2116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-1990s","tag-102","tag-asian-students-association-asa","tag-black-students-alliance","tag-institutional-action","tag-international-students-organization-iso","tag-korean-american-students-of-smith-kass","tag-nosotras-laso","tag-smith-african-students-association-sasa","tag-south-asian-students-association-of-smith-ekta","tag-unity","entry","grid"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2116","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1118"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2116"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2116\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2436,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2116\/revisions\/2436"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/weaving-voices-archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
