PROPOSED SCIENCE BUILDING Progress And Change With increasing enrollment, Pikeville College is in need of more and better classroom facilities. In trying to meet this need, a two and one-half million dollar science building has been approved for construction. It is expected to look somewhat like the picture above. The addition of newer facilities has also pointed out a need for renovating the old. The campus has been landscaped by experienced people and paneling, car- peting and refurnishing have been completed in the administration building. 16

For the Memory of the past serves the present only if it lifts the present above the record of the past . . . Tomorrow is ours if we think not of survival but of sacrifice, think not of exis- tence but encounter, and if we think not of self but service. These words are only a part of the challenge offered by Dr. Thomas H. Johns following his installment by Norman A. Chrisman, Chairman of the Board of Trustees.

The city of Pikeville, through the efforts of its mayor, William C. Hambley, was designated as one of the 63 Model Cities through- out the United States. Reaping the benefits from the award, the col- lege will be integrally involved with the city in carrying out the proposals . The Model City Program, as the Mayor envisions it, will encompass the idea of a total education in its broadest and most liberal sense. Among the new buildings ex- pected to be erected on campus to meet the needs of an enlarging resident student body is the pro- posed apartment-like building which will accommodate 144 women. The perennial parking problem worsens as the college experiences growth pains and more and more automobiles make their appearance on campus.
