About this postcard

An aerial view looks down on Glenn Memorial Methodist Church and its church school building on the Emory University campus, with the church's domed tower rising at the right and long red-roofed wings set among trees and lawns. The church serves as both a community church and a university chapel. The amphitheatre between the main auditorium and the school building is used for Emory's annual commencement exercises and other special events. Glenn Memorial was built in the early 1930s as a memorial to the Methodist minister Charles Wesley Glenn.
