HORTON RAKES postwar expansion will cover a period of ten years and cost more than ten million dollars. The plans for this development are ready, complete in detail. Last No- vember the university began the hrst lap of this program-a drive to raise two million dollars. The achievement of this goal has been made possible by the strenuous efforts of many people, including the executive committee for the campaign. Des Moines business firms, loyal Drake alumni, and other interested individuals have contributed generously. Aside from an addition to the endowment fund, the money will be used to purchase ground to more than dou- ble the size of the present campus, to build a new science building, a new classroom building, a new pharmacy college, a new Bible college and prayer chapel, a new women's dormi- tory, a new men's dormitory, to add a wing to the present women's dormitory, and to remodel and renovate present buildings. The Ten-Year Program, which is designed to bring Drake to its fullest potentialities, provides for buildings and facilities to assure its future among the top schools of the country. 6
