Emmanuel College Residence - Exterior

View looking northeast of Emmanuel College Residence. Emmanuel College and St. Chad Chapel visible in background. Car visible at right.

Bio/Historical Note: The Emmanuel College Residence, completed in 1963, was designed by Webster, Forrester and Scott to accommodate 85 students, the college president and a caretaker. Located just north of the original Emmanuel College building, plans called for the two buildings to be linked, this, however, was never completed. Renamed in 1975, McLean Hall was named in honour of Rt. Rev. John McLean, the first Anglican bishop of Saskatchewan and founder of Emmanuel College. It was leased initially by the Federation of Saskatchewan Indians and then purchased by the University of Saskatchewan in 1983. The building has been home to the departments of Mathematics and Statistics and Native Studies, the Saskatchewan Urban Native Teacher Education Program (SUNTEP) and the University Employees’ Union.
