Carruth-O'Leary Halls
Finished last spring Carruth-O'Leary Halls provide modern housing and eating facilities for 200 male students. This modern new three story dormitory was constructed at a cost of about $600,000, and is situated on West Campus road. It consists of two wings that house 100 men each. This new dormitory is part of the university's long range plan to alleviate the student housing shortage.
Gertrude Sellards Pearson Hall
The newest addition to the university's dormitory system is Gertrude Sellards Pearson Hall. This new dormitory provides housing and eating facilities for 400 women students. This is its first year of occupancy, and the contractors are now applying the finishing touches to this new dormitory.
Remodeling Of Bailey Hall
The remodeling of Bailey Hall is scheduled for completion some time in January. This $600,000 remodeling job of the interior of Bailey Hall is 80 per cent finished. The new Bailey Hall will be the future home of the School of Education. Formal dedication of Bailey Hall is planned for the fall of 1956.
Construction Of The New Fine Arts Building
