A NEW BEGINNING.. THE KERNEY CENTER What Better way to end VIKING '76 than to celebrate the opening of the Iames Kerney Center, MCCC's new Trenton Campus, at Broad and Academy Streets. By the time VIKING '76 is distributed, this center fwhich contains library, classrooms, labs, health and food services, recreation areas and a day care center - 20,000 square feet of interior spacej will be in full use. Students who used the Kelsey Building and other relics of Trenton Iunior College and Mercer's first years will now make this modern urban center their scholastic home. Land for the center was purchased through a grant of S350,000, from the Iames Kerney Foundation which was founded in 1932 to honor the former publisher of The Trenton Times. Groundbreaking ceremonies took place on August 23, 19749 honored guests included New Iersey's governor, Brenden Byrne, Trenton's mayor, Arthur Holland, and the Director of the Mercer County Board of Chosen Freeholders, Arthur Sypek. W. Oliver Bucky Leggett offered the benediction, and S. Howard Woodson offered the invocation. Tours of the completed Kerney Center were conducted in Ianuary, 1976, and classes began there in February. 7
