and contributions to the institution. Unlike the other buildings on campus, Seif Hal! has a very modern design, its curved and rounded windows, as wel as its upturned-roof, capture the attention of passersby. Not only is there a new building on the block, but some of the older buildings are also being renovated. Weatherly Hal is no longer a study dorm, but is Ike the other dorms. A few years ago men were not aiowed in the women's rooms, and sience was demanded around the clock. Even registration for classes at JSU has changed. Students no longer meet in the auditorium to gather BM cards for each class they want to attend. Al a student must do is to fi out a trial schedule, get it signed by an advisor, and take it to the computer terminal at the colege of his or her major. Jacksonville State University is growing, and growth is always followed by change. Progress is being made daiy before us. and today is tomorrow's history. —Debbie Kipp— Self Hal is the new building on campus, its facilities accomnnodate the departments of Communication and Technol-ogy TODAY 7
