After a long year of muddy con- struction and the roar of bulldozers in- terrupting the tranquility of Old Cam- pus, the new building was finally com- pleted. As expected it refreshed Old Campus by both its attractive ap- pearance and the number of law students it attracted. Inside the huge glass doors is a spacious lounge that provides a place for students to relax and socialize be- tween classes. At the other end of the building lies the 3-level library. Unfor- tunately, after a short trial period in October the law library was closed to undergraduates temporarily. Old Campus Gets New Look Though most undergraduates do not enter the building, its presence is felt around Old Campus. Its modern appearance has definitely changed the look of the area, but rather than over- shadowing the older buildings, it has enhanced their appearance and brought new life to the area. -Tammy Smith THE PIECES t 13

12.8 E BUILDING ON. Changing For The Good Of All When students returned to campus in August, they had to make the usual adjustments. It all seemed the same until someone decided to add or drop a class, or take Stu, or change his major: And then he noticed his advisor and the dean of the college were both in the same building and the building was in the center of the campus! Huegli Hall was dedicated September 18 with a small red-carpet ceremony. All the deans of the college of Arts and Sciences and the dean of the Chapel are housed there along with the faculty of the English, history, political science and theology departments. qu a great thing for the university . . . to have a center kind of in the center of things? commented Dean Forrest Lance. According to Deaconness Diane Greve, director of diaconal services, the Lutheran Deaconness A C O N Association approached the University last year on negotiations to sell the building. The University pur- chased the building and made arrangements to move the deaconness center to the traditional home of the dean of the Chapel. Though the new center doesntt provide housing for the deaconness students, it is designed for their free use and has a library, file room, various offices, and a living and dining area. The students and faculty seem to have ad- justed well to change; uI think it was really a positive move for us and the university? said Greve. -Tammy Smith
