SPRINGFIELD ARMORY 1794-1972 The Springfield Armory, until its phase-out, the technical and scientific center for American military weapons ranging from pistols, rifles and ma- chine guns to aircraft armament, this year observes its 1 78th anniversary. Springfield was chosen as the site of a considerable number of skilled gun- smiths, blacksmiths and craftsmen. Years ago, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow visited the armory and wrote his poem The Arsenal at Springfield. In that poem he expressed the thought: Were half the power, that fills the world with terror, Were half the wealth, bestowed on camps and courts, Given to redeem the human mind from error, There were no need of arsenals nor forts. Thus, on the same soil where Longfellow stood when he recited that verse, Springfield Technical Community College is now fulfilling that age- old dream. Established in September, 1 967, the college is located on One Armory Square, Springfield, Massachusetts. 2

PHYSICAL SCIENCE HUMANITIES Springfield Technical Community College has begun construction on the 36-acre campus, of a $45-million expansion project. These three buildings are the look of the future for STCC. The Physical Science, Humanities and Biological Science buildings will be located on the north side of the ar- mory parade grounds from the center of the campus to Pearl street. Nothing would be built on the parade grounds which will be maintained as a historical site. Construction will not affect either the Springfield Ar- mory Museum or the Commandant ' s home. The archit ects ' design calls for red brick facing on the new buildings to blend with the historic armory buildings. The three buildings will be the first step in enabling the college to grow to the 5,000 student level. STCC is not only growing building wise, but academically as well. In December of 1971 STCC was notified by the New England Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools that it had received full accreditation by the New England Association. Just four years old, STCC became one of the youngest comprehensive colleges to be fully accredited. BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE
