A lour of campus just lwo years
ago look less than an hour and
could be done on loot with a
side frip by car io the (dairy barns.
The buildings shown on ihis page
are not all within walking range

The University .is in a huge
program of construction. In every
corner of campus one finds exca
vations, rising frameworks and
newly completed structures. »
Most fascinating perhaps is the
University Research Center which
is now one-third completed on a
plot of ground east and behind
the Atomic Reactor building.
Three long, low and modern
structures are in various stages of
completion. All phases of research
from engineering to language
translation are being located
there.
Also in the same area the first
uprights for a new graduate stu
dent housing development have
been nailed in place. This new
community will be a good 25
minute walk from main campus
but will replace the inadequate
barracks now in use.
By its appearance it would
never be taken for Swine Re
search Facilities, but the modern
red and silver structure, possibly
the most distant of all campus
buildings, is solely for the pur
pose of the study of our pork
supply. Modern animal pens
surround ihp main section of the
building which houses a lecture
and student assembly area.
The Military Science building
on the north-east edge of the
flower gardens is an impressive
site. Joining the main building
Is an armory to house tri-service
ordnance equipment, such as an
