iM MSU . . . ! A GLANCE AROUND The beauty of the MSU campus and the memory of what it looked like will stay with you. Every beauty has some focal point about it and MSU ' s campus is no ex- ception. The calling card is the Union, a building built for and by students. It houses the life-center of the students, namely student government, student organizations, student recreation, and student publications. Out the Union door, the student heads to class. The front door opens across the mall to the university post of- fice and YMCA, a multi-purpose building easily noticed by its rich, wine- colored brick. Back across the street is Lee Hall, another red brick building which is named for MSU ' s first presi- dent, Stephen D. Lee. A grassy field is the Union ' s backyard. It becomes the drill field, the place where MSU cadets practiced drills when Mississippi State University was Mississippi A M. The drill field displays some of the finest ar- chitecture in the world. To the left sits Engineering Row, a gathering of engineering buildings — McCain, Carpenter, Walker, and Patterson. To the lefthand corner lies Mitchell Memorial Library and to the right of the drill field is a building of the early 70s, McCool Hall, the home of the College of Business and Industry. The head- quarters for the MSU President, the Registrar and other academic depart- ments is Allen Hall, the ultramodern building opposite Lee Hall with the ultramodern sculpture. While this outline is only a bird ' s eye view of the campus, it is the first one the beginning student sees and the one that will be tucked away until alumni meetings in the future. P. Drapala The pictures above are of the view toward the Union and Lee Hall; McCool Hall; the statue of Stephen D. Lee, the first president, for whom Lee Hall is named; Mitchell Library, the largest library in the state; and Harned Hall, which is a biological science building located behind Lee Hal!. The drill field, center, is the focal point of student life. topobianco — all
