Ours is a college we can be proud of as we face the future. -9 Drur of the Future If we work upon marble, it will perishg if on brass, time will efface itg if we rear temples, they will crumble into dustg but if we work upon immortal minds, and imbue them with principles and the just fear of God and love of our fellow-men, we engrace on those tablets something that will brighten to all eternity. -Daniel lVelJster Key 1-Proposed Haigwood Library. 2-Stone Chapel with proposed adjacent classroom structure. 3- Proposed gateways. 4-Proposed Academic Building to replace Fairbanks. 5-Proposed en- largement of tennis courts. 6-Clara 'Thompson with proposed Fine Arts addition. 7-Proposed women's dormitory. 8-NVallace Hall. 9-Pro- posed fraternity lodges. 10-Proposed mens dormitory. 11-Proposed rebuilding of McCul- lagh. 12-Marine Building. 13-Proposed botani- cal greenhouse. 14-Proposed enlargement of heating plant. 15-Proposed double width side- walk to replace Drury Lime. 16-Burnham Hall with proposed rehabilitation. 17-Pearsons Hall with proposed rehabilitation. 18-Harwood Li- brarv converted into Administration Building. 19-Presidents home. 20-Panhellenic Building. 21-Belle Hall and College Commons with pro- posed addition. 22-Band building. 23-New Men's Dorm. 24-Field House with proposed swimming pool addition.

T j p T L0 C RA GE PLA The Long Range Plan is proof of, Drury's Forward Look as it attempts to outline the needs of the college . . . not only as they exist now, but as they will exist five, ten, fifteen years from now. It should be kept in mind that there will be growth and change in this plan from year to year, for planning is a continuing process. A Master Plan for the campus has been outlined in the form of certain basic principles to be followed in the planning and location of future buildings. These prin- ciples are as follows: O Maintenance of the rectangle as the basic concept for the location of buildings. O The housing unit at the north end and the academic unit at the south end of the campus. O Eventual elimination of Drury Lane . . . changing the interior of the campus to a greensward and for pedestrians onlyf' 0 Double width sidewalks . . . usable in the late aft- ernoon as service drives. On the score of realistic planning the long range pro- gram has already been pushed into action and some im- provements have been completed. For example: the re- habilitation of Stone Chapel, the addition to VVallace Hall, refurnishing of the Commons' kitchen and new equip- ment in the chemistry, biology and geology laboratories. In spite of the many things already finished, the pro- gram is full of future needs. Some are immediately neces- sary, and others will come along later. They are summa- rized here. New buildings and additions other than donnitories: O New- Library. Conversion of the present library to an Administration Building and the space now oc- cupied by administrative offices to classroom use. O Addition to present Commons. O New Botanical Greenhouse. 0 Swimming Pool. To be an addition to the Field House. O Fine Arts addition to Clara Thompson. To include facilities for the music, speech-debate and art de- partments. O Academic Building to replace Fairbanks Hall. -3-
