MERCER MARCHES ON ) ARING s the word descriptive of the building and endowment program be- gun by President Speight Dowell fom years ago Since 1933 ff rends. stu- dents and officials of Mercer Univer- sity have witnessed the rrost remarkable changes ever to occur on the University properly m an equal span of time. Intended to extend over a penod of ten years—the first fi e of which were to be de voted to construction, .n observance of Mercer Institute 1833 381 , the last hire of which are to be spent in securing en dOWnentS. 'in ccmmpmcya- of the changing of the Institute nfo a uni- versity'—the protect has at ready resulted in astounding transformations and additions on tf campus The first actual fruits of the campaign came in 1933 when Dr [X wel I obtained d nations sufficient to replace all wood stoves m campus buildings w.th gas heaters. Then followed the installa- tion of running water the repainting, recovering, and •nyide remodeling of Sher- wwd Hall, and miscellaneous improvements m various Other student holdings In 1935-30 encirclement of the Mercer grounds by a paved drive was completed by the addition of an arc extending from Adams at Coleman around by Cen- tennial Stadium, to the (unction of College and Ash streets And only a few months later Mercer cot tapirs located on this dove were redene insxde and nut occupor f s being given access to various modem conveniences which tlvy had not formerly enioyed Canbrell and Cynth a f-lolliday Halls were also re modeled while all structures detracting from cam- pus beauty were tom down Work was next begun on the library While students searched throu( the stacks m if ? Mercer law building where all books were temporarily mewed. wood, stone, and metal workers gradually Chwrlt Ipric » AI MA. r.twWa ♦ tW rr ir- ♦ rmed the old library mto a well equipped and attractive construction With the old books back m their heme shelves and with several thou- sands of dollars worth of new volumes, a Mercer •-•(dent now finds ai his service a library which would do credit to any institution of higher learning Pester Hall, however- donated by Dr jamw, M Porter ofiren of Macon and honorary U D of Mercer rind dedicated m the spring of 1937, was the first complete addition to the number of cam pus bu«ldings Penficld Hall, which formerly served as athletic building, was then transformed into a student center, including a Univer- sity post office station, a tea room, and offices for alt student publications and organizations The most re- cent donation to Mercer came in the form of new furniture for Penficlcfs lobby and its activities offices The old student center, kown to the campus as tfve Co-op , is to become five losephF Wilier Science Hall A $50.000 protect. I he re- modeling of this building and the installa! ion of newc lence equipment will make of it a modern laboratory where students will be able to pur- sue more conveniently and successfully their scientific endeavors Other projects looming on the horizon are the doubling of tlie capacity of Sherwood Hall, which will involve a $75,000 ex- penditure, and the construction of a dormitory for Rirls The» aims achieved, in 1938, the last year of the firsr half of the ten-year interval, friends of Mercer will say Well done and stand t»v fo watch the Un«vers ty administration, under the dauntless leadership of Dr Dowell, move on mto the second half of its ten-year program, hope- M only that the last half will be as successful as rhe ilftf LLP.
