Now in its 25th yeor, Union building focilities will be converted to housing of ci University Department or College. is the watchword in our perspective of the new Union Building - motion forward to create a visual conception into reality. In the dedication of this capacious structure we reveal our appreciation for the progress that it symbolizes. We view the former Union Building with re- spect, because throughout the years it has success- fully gained recognition as being in the lime-light, the center of spirited campus life. At the present time we see the progressive construction of a new, roomier, and superior building in which not only student, but faculty and alumnus activity shall evolve. In 1947 the dream originated with the stu- dent body who voted to assess themselves in order to build a more spacious and conveniently located Union. After the war years a larger crowd at- tended the University, and the campus expanded considerably with the moving of departments to the upper campus. Thus a lag of interest in stuf dent affairs persisted because of the separation of buildings, and the U. of U., as many other great universities during this time, lapsed into a street- car campus.
