Diversified Forces Combine to Choracferize a World In Itself Work, time, pride, loyalty, and groups-these are the eal and intangible forces that make ASC a living, growing ollege. They make the college a small world in itself, operat- ng on the same principles as the larger world of which it is , part. Each group works toward goals that will benefit all of the tudents. Students take pride in their achievements, Working ogether toward a common objective draws individuals closer ogether and promotes loyalty. Groups are the factors that 'ind ASC socially and scholastically. They are looking for- ward and taking steps to make the college a unified body of people with high standards. lt takes time and it takes work, .ut the result is a living college. ., 11.1 s 'X , -' ' .4 :Slip M S s W' 0 f its ..

Progressive Changes Achieved In Library and IBM Processing Library study and reference work will become more pleas- ant with the addition of four stories to the present building. Work began this year on the library, and the building should be completed before September, 1967. Three elevators will be installed for student use in the seven story structure. Library space has been a big problem at ASC, but with the new addition, ample space will be provided. The ground floor will be reorganized to include technical processes, a browsing area where the reserve room was, a larger reserve room, the circulation desk, and the card catalogue. Reference material and documents will be located on the second floor. Periodicals, study areas, and general reading will compose the third, fourth, and fifth floors. The sixth floor will contain special collections, archives, displays, and a large lecture room seat- ing 100 persons. Audio-visual aids and possibly a snack bar will fill the basement. This addition, which will more than double the book capacity, is subsequent to last year's scrapping of the Dewey Decimal System for filing books. Under the new Library of Congress System, a letter rather than a number is used to signify the book's subject matter. Another progressive change has taken place in the Data Processing Department. IBM computers process the records of almost 12,000 Arlington State College students each semester. Data Processing maintains the addresses of all students and produces all class rolls and teacher, student, and class schedules. It also processes the annual budget and a fee audit and runs a special report on student credit hours. During the fall a new IBM academic process was developed whereby the student's standing is evaluated on his overall academic performance. ig-3 t iii W 'Q ri' , Q. ,xiii , .V v- Q ,M s -f ?
