 The library boasted one of the country's few Quadraphonic sound systems, and its first Quadraphonic recording was the Columbia production of Leonard Bernstein 's music commission for the September 8, 1971 opening of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Mass.The first landscaping by the school was the purchase of a sapling - as Vepris lanceolata (supposedly a White Ironwood) - by Mrs Roberts, and planted in the Library courtyard in 1974 by former student, Mr Guy H. Best.As a potential pretender to the title, this tree was christened "Anastasia", after Anna Anderson.
