the student . A familiar sight this year was the con- struction work going on around the cam- pus. As school began in the fall, only the three academic buildings were completed. Through the year, construction of the other four buildings began and progressed as 6,000,000 pounds of masonry, 48,000,000 pounds of concrete, 3l0,000 lightweight blocks, l00,000 glazed tile, 6,500 window panes, 400,000 face bricks, and 350,000 man hours went into the seven buildings. Sod was laid, shrubs planted in the lawns and the patios, and the student parking lot finished as the seasons rolled by. FAlRMONT'S CAFETERIA has a different appear- ance now from the construction stage as photo- graphed. TYPICAL VIEW around Fairmont during the day was a scene of busy students as seen through the window walls on the hall side of each room.

With the reality of this dream, came a campus-style school which, when com- pleted, will consist of seven buildings. The three academic buildings have lO3 modern classrooms, three theatrical l rooms, six labora to ries, and three i modern home economic units. The stu- dent activity rooms and student earliest completed units. lounges furnish places for clubs and friends to meet. The cafeteria, audi- torium, and gymnasium are planned to accommodate l,9OO pupils, and the li- brary, with a capacity for lO,5OO vol- umes, will assure students of literature as up-to-date as the school, The school is so designed that new units may be added in the future as the need arises.

Each displayed a spirit of co-operativeness and cheerful- ness as Fairmont carried on through the first semester without a gymnasium, music and Shop facilities, an auditorium, and a cafeteria. Class plays, dances, music and shop classes were held at the old Fairmont. Shuttle busses provided transportation be- tween Classes, and pep assemblies were held on the front lawn and over the public address system. Personality was expressed in enthusiasm over sports, willingness to work together, and the desire to pursue the three R's. RAIN, RAIN, RAIN! A few brave souls ventured between buildings as rain came down in torrents. Less adventurous students waited and watched for a let up in the downpour.
