Other improvements for which the board was responsible included the remodeling of Wilkins Stadium, completion of the tennis and hand- yr ball courts and the construction of several parking lots. This year the board was also concerned with a number of advancements in the area of academics. Several additions were made to the curriculum, and new programs were initiated. Rearranging the school year, construction of a nursing building and other projects of expansion were also topics of discussion at the board meetings. Highlighting the late-spring activities of the board was the appointment by Governor Winthrop Rocke- feller of two new board members. Appointed were Dr. William H. Hunter of Little Rock and Earl M.
