Seniors May Vote
On Gift Suggestions
Seniors will select the class gift this week which will
be presented to the University at commencement in June.
Three suggestions are being voted on at a booth set up
in Recreation Hall. They are a boat dock and landing for
on turn-offs or benches and

Tim Nelligan, chairman of the
Senior Class Gift Committee,
stressed that the booth was not
intended to solicit money for the
gift; seniors are asked only to
vote for their choice of proposed
gifts.
The proposals were selected by
the gift committee, after it studied
suggestions submitted by seniors
during the past semester.
The most popular and finan
cially appropriate were then
selected by the committee to
be placed on the ballot.
During the past two years, mem
bers of the class have contributed
$2530.18 toward a class gift, ac
cording to Nelligan. This amount
will be matched by the University,
so that the seniors will have more
than $5OOO available to them for
a gift.
A boat dock and landing is one
of the many facilities planned for
the new Stone Valley Dam and
Recreation Area. Beaches, bath
houses and an alumni lodge are
olanned for later construction.
An information turn-off proj
ect will involve two locations!
one on west campus and the
other on east campus. Each area
will have a turn-off area with
parking zones, a large map of
the campus and a dispenser for
individual maps.
The turn-offs will be set up for
the convenience of new students,
parents and visitors.
The third suggestion, more
benches and additional bike racks,
would provide facilities at various
areas on campus.
A number of benches, donated
by the class of 1900, are located
on central campus surrounding
Old Main.
