Building for the future
A crane is being used in the construction of the new science library. Construction of the library started during the 1887 fall semester. It is scheduled for completion by July 1893.
Workmen cut reinforcing rods while preparing to pour concrete pilings. The pilings are part of the foundation for a new access road for Wescor road. The road will eliminate all parking behind
unrollment goes up and the University of Kansas expands.
A juniper tree was placed on top of the new science library in June to signify that the construction of the steel shell was complete. The building is scheduled to open in July 1889 with 91,000 square feet of usable space.
The construction of the library made it necessary to build a new access road to Wescoe Hall. The new road comes from the east off of Sunflower Road and runs behind Stauffer Flint Hall. The construction eliminates all narking behind that building.
Heroization of Snow Hall also progressed over the summer. The remodeled building will house the math and computer science department.
Despite 100 plus-degree heat in June, ground was broken for the Robert J. Dole Human Development Center. The building will house the Children's Hospital, the Institute of Language and Speech-Language Hearing, the Institute for Life Span Studies; the University of Child Research, the Gerontology Center; and the radio and television studios.
The building was named for Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole. It is scheduled for completion in fall 1990.
