Identification of ca 1890s New York College or University

[texanabooks]

Can anyone help identify the New York college or univesity shown in these two ca 1890s cabinet photos? Any help will be appreciated.

What I can see of the building in the top photo reminds  me of the round one (sorry, can't remember name) at Union College, Schenectady, so you might want to Google along those lines.   I saw it only once, in passing, so I may be way off base.

Pretty sure the first one is the John C. Green School of Science, built in Princeton in 1873.

"It housed the science department of the College of New Jersey (the original name of Princeton University). On November 26, 1928, it was destroyed by a fire."

And I reckon the second one is also at Princeton (Clio Hall):

You're very welcome, but Argon's identification is the correct one.
