THE DECADE 1955-1965 saw Brown expand- ing in several directions at once. The most obvi- ous improvement and largest expenditure came in physical plant; new buildings and renova- tions of old structures benefitted almost all signif- icant segments of the University. For under- graduates, the West Quad and the new Pem- broke dormitories were built, and extensive ren- ovations were carried out in several of the older residence halls. Athletics were boosted by the purchase of the Dexter Asylum and the con- struction of Meehan Auditorium-and the al- most overnight upswing in the quality of hockey pointed toward more monetary commitment to other sports. No fewer than six of the sciences received their own buildings and laboratories: the Hunter Psychology building, the Wilson Bi- ology lab, the computer lab, Prince Engineering lab, the new greenhouse, and the Barus-Holley complex. The humanities finally received rec- ognition in the form of the Rockefeller library, with the promise of more to come. In addition to the purely physical develop- ment, Brown has grown in other ways. The size of the faculty has almost doubled. The quality of the faculty has improved, and median salaries have increased substantially. Similarly, the size and quality of the student body has increased, as has tuition. In fact, almost all the dollar- measures have multiplied during the Keeney administration: the market value and income of the endowment have more than doubled, the amount of government and foundation grants have risen e.g. the two Ford Foundation chal- lenge grants, and the amount of financial aid given to students has been raised. On other fronts, the graduate school was en- larged; university-owned land showed a net gain of some forty acres; the Brown University Press came into existence; and the college celebrated its 200th anniversary with all the pomp and lavishness it could muster.
