UNIVERSITY of ALASKA At its 1937 session the Territorial Legislature, responding to a request from the Board of Regents of the University, appropriated the sum of $195,000 for building purposes and authorized the expenditure of not more than $70,000 for a reinforced concrete, fireproof dormitory, and not more than $125,000 for a new power plant. The dormitory, which is now nearly completed, will have accommodations for sixty-six women students. Plans are under way to begin the construction of the power plant on the seventeenth of May, the day following Commencement. For the purpose of establishing an agricultural fur farm experiment station and to be designated as sub-station No. 2, the Legislature at the same session appropriated the further sum of $20,000. The site selected for this station is near Petersburg and the work of clearing the site is in progress. By another appropriation, funds were provided for the Commissioner of Mines to establish assay offices at Nome, College and Ketchikan. Since a duplication of the work already being done at the University by the United States Geological Survey was unnecessary, this station was transferred to the Commissioner of Mines.
