Campus Business Administration . . . progress forged in steel and concrete. DU's modern Bizad Building houses one of the most up and coming colleges in the Uni- versity, the College of Business Administration. With a seating capacity of more than two thousand, the hub of the Civic Center Campus is one of the newest buildings at DU. Here students attend classes touching all phases of business in one of the country's top- ranking schools. Accounting, advertising, retailing and public administration are a few of the many departments which offer majors to interested stu- dents. One of the most outstanding plans of the Bizad school is the internship program in which students spend three months of their senior year gaining practical experience by working in Denver firms. The location of the college proves of benefit to working stu- dents who find downtown Denver only a short distance away. This also aids in presenting the practical approach, carried out in classes taught by leading Denver merchants and businessmen. The Bizad Building is equipped with an up-to-date library which provides both study room and reference materials for Civic Center students. On its popular sundeck, pioneers congregate daily to read, chat and study. Nearby, the atmospheric Student Union cre- ates a striking contract to the streamlined structure of the Bizad Building and offers a place for coffee and conversation between classes. A dominating part of the University, the Bizad Building emphasizes progress in its curriculum as well as in its construction. v' -- if 'v,..,1Q,Q,, wgffwa A?-LQ se.. ss s is

Marjorie Reed Hall . . . tradition cast in bronze. ln the center of the quadrangle one finds the heart of DU. Here the Alma Mater observes the many faces of University life reflected in students crossing the campus on their way to class. Symbol from the past, this familiar bronze statue embodies the spirit of the present. Facing her is the well-known Marjorie Reed Hall. ln its brick foundations student art has its basis. Upstairs in Marjorie Reed the art depart- ment holds most of its classes and provides exhibits of student work for the University. Here the school of education prepares the teachers of tomorrow in seminars and methods courses. On stage at the Little Theater in the center of Marjorie Reed, DU drama students present shades of comedy and tragedy in the best taste. ln Marjorie Reed Hall the study of the contributions of by-gone cultures leads to the discovery of new talents and the founding of new traditions. 1 0.eAS!N X 4 g ,W'f.ME.3j.'fl 3. i ii 'H QE' at A'
