Student committees under the general leadership of William Foster have worked closely with Dr. Edward Ott, Program Director of the Center, to provide a program of activities which could meet the diverse needs of our university community. Those of us who were here before the opening of the Center and have had the privilege of using the Center this year can realize the expansion of scope given to us in informal education. We hope those who follow us will appreciate the Student Center as much in the years to come as we have in its first year,

September 1958 brought the completion of several new buildings on our campus, among them the Student Center. H,d The imagination of a few, combined with the enthusiasm and St ent interest of many has resulted in a building designed to sup- Center port a program of activities demanded by an ever-growing student body. The nostalgic alumnus who may recall many happy hours spent in the seclusion of a booth in the old Secrounge in the basement of Memorial Library will recog- nize immediately the inclusiveness of the Snack Bar of the new building which seats 150. Incidentally, the Snack Bar inherited the old nick-name with an addition; Scrounge-Hilton. The name is indicative of the change, The most favorable carry-over from the old Scrounge is the price of coffee which is still five cents. Tastefiil decoration and functional comfort are found all over in the building. Activities which would have been quite foreign to the university a century ago have now become an integral part of a modern educational institution which is attempting to utilize the leisure time of its students to the best advantage. Billiards, ping-pong, television, high-fidelity listening, browsing in the library and working in the photo lab are some of the opportunities which the building offers. The Student Government Association and the many service and interest groups on campus have made good use of the comfortable meeting rooms. The student publicationsVenture, Blue Hen, and Review also have their offices here. A branch of the Farmers Bank of Delaware and a barber shop are two facili- ties which lend to the utility that makes this a true center of student activity. The University Bookstore, formerly located in a room at the basement of the Memorial Library, now has ample storage and display space in its new home in the basement of the Center.
