OLE, AND NEW BECKON STUDENTS TO BIG RED At left is the Roy Cullen Building where classes range from the very practical marketing on the main floor to piquant French on second. The first building to be built on the University campus, the Roy Cullen Building, was erected by the Cullen family in memory of their son. At top right are our engineers busily planning the inventions of tomorrow and studying the principles involved while in the modern Engineering Building on the north side of the University campus. At middle right we see the Home Management House where University co-eds live in ultramodern surroundings. Here, across from Law Hall, a group of home economics majors cook, plan meals, and learn through experience to be ideal housewives. On the bottom right is the tthubh of student activities, Cougar Den, a familiar sight to all students. On the main floor coffee, cards and talk are always available to students. Upstairs is the Religious Center, the lost and found, and the all-important Fiesta Association, Student Government, Pep Club, APO, and Student Activities head- quarters.
