That's awesome you're going to UM! The pre-war building you're thinking of is probably the Old Arts Building – it's a real beauty. I don't have any juicy gossip, unfortunately, but I remember reading somewhere that it survived the Japanese occupation relatively unscathed, which is pretty remarkable considering the circumstances...
