North Texas In Transition North Texas' campus is being streamlined. This year it didn't look streamlined. This year it was in transition. For several years to come it will be in a state of transforma- tion. But this year was perhaps its biggest year of con- struction. Collegians saw it in progress . . . and heard it . . . and felt it . . . and loved it. The inconvenience of blocked-off walkways, the incessant monotone of noise droning above the sound of the prof's voice, the clutter of machinery and debris-and the knowledge that our college is expanding. These things were all a part of North Texas, 1959-North Texas in transition. In mid-September the fall semester opened with the largest enrollment North Texas has ever known. This meant a shortage of classroom space, living quarters, and parking lots. To accommodate the increased number of students, forty instructors were added to the teaching staff. New parking lots were completed, and construction was begun on others. Plans for more and bigger and more modern classroom buildings became the beginnings of reality and were no longer just plans. Coveralled workmen, piles of lumber and bricks, and an occasional sound of blast- ing became a part of the every-day college routine. Everywhere there was activity and manifestation of growth, with rest coming only in the quiet of the night. By mid-term much of the campus had become virtually unrecognizable. Some buildings, once familiar landmarks, were no longer standing. Others had sprung up to replace them, and still others were as yet only gaping holes in the ground. A few of the old buildings had been mod- ernized and boasted additional space. New hamburger- and-malteds spots opened up, and in off-campus areas apartment houses appeared to acco-mmodate young mar- ried students and college men who found the dormitories filled. The changes didn't come slowly and imperceptibly. They were rapid and were apparent every day. Recording these elements of change has been the goal of the 1959 Yuccaf-to retain in its pages North Texas in transition.
