IBreezeway to Collier Hall at SSPA. Future SSPA building to be erected on the present site of the Downtown School. Some would say that The American University is two Universities - one a small liberal arts college on a suburban campus, the other a pro fessional school for the serious-minded students in downtown Washington, It is rather difficult to have a unified University when there are two main forces vying to separate it into disjointed segments. This is the challenge with which The American University is confronted. First of all there is the factor of location. The School of Nursing is really part of CAS, for the nurses take the majority of their classes on Campus. Bui they must travel approximately fifteen miles to St. Elizabeth ' s for their lab instruction. Then, too, it is four and one-half miles from the Uptown Campus to the Downtown School — which does not claim a campus. Many students take classes at both schools and have the inconvenience of transportation with which to contend. Secondly, there is the factor of enrollment to consider. The 506 full-time students are constantly rubbing shoulders with the 5100 part-time students; the young college-age stu- dents are in classes with the more serious married students who are con- cerned with far more than the thought of a coming dance, a fraternity rush party, or even an impending exam. The faculty has the same prob- lem. Many are only part-time professors who are employed in an outside full-time position. All these diversities have resulted in greater stimulation and broaden- ing of interests of both student and faculty. But to continue in this vein would result in stagnation. The American University must be one Uni- versity with one goal and one set of ideals.
