'W M 4 . ies. M U KEEP PACE ITH CHA GI GWCDRLD lf some change is normally inevitable-, then it was a way of life on MSU's campus. The view that greeted a student's eyes each morning was different than the one he had seen the day before. Pits were started and enlarged, then filled with wood and concretefg metal beams were raised, then covered from sight with bricks and glass. Through all this students carried on overtly in much the same' manner as they were accustomed but it is reasonable to believe that they were affected. For students there is first the big vacant feeling of homesick- ness and dissolutionment as we lose our old manners and prejudices. With more learning comes a solid foundation of awareness and tolerance. Finally we acquire- the trimmings and polish of educated people. At any rate everyone knows that through these little day- by-day changes, a big chance lperhaps an unfathomable onel is coming to Montana State University and her students. l3 KEY TO CAMPUS BUILDINGS: l-Dorn- blaser stands: 2--Correspondent's schoolg 3-Main hallg 4-Old Scienceg 5-Women's gymj 6-Math-Physics building lformerly Craig halllg 7-Low schoolg 8-Simpkins Little Theaterg 9--Humanities Classroom building lnewlg lO--Art and Women's Club buildingg ll-Natural Science buildingg I2 --Health centerg I3--New hallj I4-Music Practice houseg lS--Libraryg l6-Forestry schoolg l7-Corbin hallg l8-Journalism schoolg I9--Student Uniong 20-Men's gymg 21-University Heating plantg 22- Craig hall lnew men's dormitorylg 23- Women's Physical Education and Home Ec- onomics center lne-wig 24--Cook hallg 25- Narth hallj 26-Chemistry-Pharmacy build- ingg 27--Business Administration and Edu- cation buildingg 28-ROTC departmentg 29- Music school lnewlg 30-South hallg Sl- Jumbo hall.
