1946 年的春天, 连年的战争阴云终于被扫去,沪江大学的校园被再次修缮一新。一个高年级女生在看到自己的新宿舍楼时,曾激动地在她的日记中写到:
"I never realized how beautiful the girls' new dormitory is until I came back late this evening. Viewing the new building in the moonlight, I beheld its magnificence, sparkling and cozy. Some of the windows even have draperies and curtains. It looks more like a fine apartment home than a dormitory!"
