LjuiUl n 3 Attendant with the increased enrollment of the Univer- sity during the past few years, there has been an exten- sive building program on the University campus. This period has seen the erection of the Men ' s Dormitory, the Field hlouse, the Women ' s Club Building, the Museum, and the open air Mary Rippon Memorial Theatre. Now under construction are a new engineering building and two wings of the Liberal Arts Building. All of these build- ings are fashioned in a style adapted from rural Italian architecture and developed by Charles Z. Klander. This architectural style of the University buildings is individual among American universities. The Men ' s Dormitory houses about four hundred and fifty men, most of the first year men being required to live there. It is divided into four halls: Baker, Fleming, Hel- lems, and Ketchum. Each hall is a unit, having its own proctor and dining hall. The field house is an important part of the University ' s ex- panding athletic program. Within the Field House is a 220-yard track; hence, it may be used for indoor track meets, as it was this year for the First Annual Invitational Track Meet, in which representatives from several of the surrounding universities competed. Also, there is a mov- able basketball floor, and for these contests a seating capacity of four thousand. Again it is useful in that football practices may be held there when the weather is too incle- ment for outdoor practice. The Museum building has provided new class rooms for the English Language De- partment, leaving Woodbury for the use of the Business School and the Extension Divi- sion, hialf of the first floor of the building is devoted to a small Art Gallery which displays the works of well-known contem- porary artists, in the other half of the first floor is the new museum room. The new wings on the Arts Building will provide more class rooms for the College of Arts and Sciences. The Sociology Department, which now uses the basement of the Law Building, will be housed in a part of one of the wings. The Fine Arts Department, which has most of its class rooms in the old Infirmary, will also have a part of the new addition to Arts. The new engineering building will be used to house more class- rooms and larger laboratories for the Col- lege of Engineering. The Women ' s Club Building is used for the social functions of the Women ' s Club. It also houses a few of the women students of the University. Page 28

Council, consisting of ten student commissioners, is the governing body of the Asso- ciated Students of the University of Colorado. This council, which elects its own officers, is ap- pointed each April by the Executive Council of the University and three members of the existing council. Continuing the policy of previous commissions, the Council this year enforced the practice of holding elections which were free from politics. In doing this it was necessary to cancel the results of one election tainted with politics and to hold another. The Council all year has been making an extensive study of fVie student governments at other univer- sities In order to discover all possible means of im- proving our own. DUDLEY HUTCHINSON Page 30
