In 1985, the Wheaton campus looked quite different from what it presently looks like. With the recent architec- tural development of the campus, Wheaton has taken on a new air of mo- dernity while maintaining much of its traditional New England heritage. In 1986, the contemporary Balfour-Hood center was completed. The completion of the new campus center brought with it the opening of the Balfour- Hood cafe, the fitness center, the dance studio, a new Campus Shop, an on campus mail service, the media center and a number of new offices. With the opening of the Balfour-Hood center, the class of 1989 happily waved goodbye to ‘‘Nightlights”’ of the previous year and welcomed the new Loft. In addition to the campus center, a new computer center was completed in 1987. Upon completion of the com- puter center, Wheaton introduced a considerable amount of new sophisti- cated hardware.
