Wilder
House is one of the 10 houses of "the Quad." Most of the doubles have large bay window seats.
The complex was built in stages starting in 1922 to allieviate a
housing shortage on campus.
When all the houses were completed in 1936, William Allen
Neilson, then the president of Smith, pronounced it the "Great
Quadrangle."
 
Wilder, and its neighbor Comstock,
were built in 1928. Together they share a covered front entrance
and a bell tower. Their
back wings join to form a courtyard which is nicknamed
the "mini-quad." The Comstock-Wilder party is
traditionally held in either the early fall or late spring
to take advantage of the great weather.
