: Loewenstein and class at Commencement Home (North Elm Street) site; Loewenstein and students pose around the Commencement Home sign in 1958. This house, located at 2207 North Elm Street, was part of unique WomanÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s College classroom experience where twenty-three art and home-economics majors designed and supervised the building of a house. The purpose of the project was to give the students a working knowledge of the challenges of their homes and families. It was supervised by local architect and WomanÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s College part-time Art Department instructor, Edward Loewenstein, and was featured in the November 1958 edition of McCallÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s Magazine.
