During a slight shower, the ribbon cutting ceremonies performed by lleft to rightl Valley College President Robert Horton, Board of Trustee Member Marion La Follette, Board of Trustees President Kenneth Wyatt and District Chancellor Dr. Leslie Koltai. By Vanessa Finan Illustrated by Wes Preston A new door was opened this fall admitting female students, as well as those of the other gender, into the first new building on the Valley College campus since the completion of the Campus Center in 1971. The new Women's Gym was not necessarily a Christmas surprise when it opened its doors on january 8 to welcome students with complete and effective facilities to enhance the women's physical education program. Monarchs were allowed a long look into Santa's bag and were able to watch the 18-month construc- tion of the gym, which is located near the Men's Gym, bordering Ethel Avenue.

Delighting in the privacy of having her own otlice, Rosemary Breckell, assistant professor of physical education, finds the contrast between this and the one-room office that used to accommodate all 10 P.E. teachers in the old gym. 23 fe 91
