Show . - - I- m m ' " -v L--' " y y. The "IT has grown up. . . . . .and it seems to have grown up over night. For students who have tromped through dust and mud for the past few years, it seemed open pits and construction equipment were normal features of the campus. Then suddenly fe gone and new buildings were left in their place. It; campus has come a long way since it consisted ot: buildings on the horseshoe and now, even far building will take place on the periphery, buifc campus center is over. L , 1 ' ': J , .

C,H - ' - ., - ' ' v s. v .Vi I After over half a decade of a campus that looked like a battlefield, we now have a new library, a new Sports and Special Events Center, a new wing on the union, a new art and architecture building, a new behavioral science building, a new graduate school of social work building, a new chemistry building, a new physics building, a new biology building and a new mines building. Of course a few new buildings were built before those, but the ones listed wove are notable for all having been mished and ready for use within the last five years. They represent the bulk I the building program that has been 1 "med out on campus, and the oldest of the new buildings, the physics building, was only an open pit in 1965. That's a lot of new buildings in such short a time. And to anyone who was o" campus before 1965 it is undoubtedly un-doubtedly a drastic change. But it is ther curious that to those of us who nave been Qn campus whjle the new j Ridings went up the change has not een that noticeable. We are ac- customed to a University that is 'ptantly growing, both in physical I wi t and enrollment, and when a new uiiding appeared we hardly noticed p hor us the drastic change will be eing a campus that is, for a while, I static. |
