People: Work, Play College life at BCCC offers many options: all work, no play; all play, no work (not recommended); some work, some play (recommended); and variations of the aforementioned. Most full time on-campus students manage to accomplish both work and play and enjoy both. Varsity sports and intramural sports get many people involved in playing, but others make watching these sports part of their playing. Other involvement in sports playing includes being a member of the pep band, leading yells, and performing on the drill team. Sooner or later all students when they finish their class work end up at the Student Union which is the center for play on the campus. Here they eat, shop, visit, and watch TV.

Campus Encompasses 80 Acres The campus of Butler County Community College is located on 80 rolling acres on the southwest edge of El Dorado. Twelve buildings com- prised the physical layout at the be- ginning of the fall term; but at the end of the spring semester, three new buildings were in place. The new buildings included a warehouse and two buildings for dormitory annexes. The annexes house eight students in each build- ing. No additional buildings had been built on the campus from 1966 until this year. No tall trees grow on the campus, even though the campus is 16 years old, for a unique reason. The cam- pus sits on a covered oil slick, and tap roots for large trees simply do not exist in oil slicks. Nevertheless, the campus is well-groomed and at- tractive.
