Kent Grows As Music, Speech Center Opens DWARFING ALL SURROUNDINGS, THE NEW MUSIC AND SPEECH CENTER EXTENDS KENT ' S CAMPUS FAR TO THE EAST OF THE FIRST Kent State ' s newest building, considered by many as one of the most modern and best equipped in the nation, is the Music and Speech Center. At a cost of approximately $3.5 million, construction was begun in 1958, and the first classes were held last summer in the nearly completed structure.

Turner Stump Memorial Theater are contained in these six buildings in one, which also houses five organs, 65 pianos, TV and radio studios and practice rooms. In addition, an outdoor theater is located off the recital hall for campus events. Hardly can a comparison be made of the old music practice house to the Center ' s new organ room. 24
