The Administration Building, erected in 1936, is situated in the middle of the campus and around it centers both academic and social life. The first floor provides administrative offices for the Director, Assistant Director, Registrar, and business stafT. The south wing houses the library, and the north wing houses class rooms lor English, History, and Psychology. In the rear of the building arc Bud’s Emporium, the two gyms, and the swimming pool. The second floor houses the offices of several faculty members, the social hall, lecture and typing rooms, and the music room. The Science Building is the oldest structure on the campus. Inside its ivy-covered walls future engineers, scientists and mathematicians spend countless hours in lecture and lab work. In the basement are the Counseling and Veterans’ Administration Offices. In the rear of the basement are the Physics l ab and High Hat Office. The first floor houses the radio workshop from which weird sounds issue forth continuously, the Psych and Bacteriology Labs, several lecture halls, and the office of the Voyager. The odor of formaldehyde and hydrogen sulfide tell us when we reach the second floor. On this floor are located the chemistry and biology labs along with engineering and fine arts workshops. Foreman Field, the largest stadium in the State, stands imposingly next to the Administration Building. It was built in 1936, and since that time hundreds of football games have been held there. Both high school and out-of-town college teams kick the pigskin over its grassy field. But as one walks down the brick paths to these buildings, one feels the real beauty of the campus. Its well-kept lawns-its profusion of daffodils, camellias, and a aleas; its majestic trees and rambling roses ... all these make the campus one of which all can be justly proud.
