goal for the University of Miami was to see it become “one of the nation’s significant private universities — not only because of the numbers of students who will inevitably make their way to this great area, but also for the vigor of the university’s academic program.”
The Golden Anniversary Development Program was developed by another “new comer” to the university, Vice-President for Development Donald V. Stophlet. Stophlet, who held the same post at Western Reserve University,
Cleveland, Ohio, came to the university on August 1, 1963. His responsibilities include supervision of all university offices dealing with UM’s various publics; specifically, alumni, public relations, publications, public information and development.
A native of Miami, William F. McLaughlin Jr., will coordinate the construction segment of the university’s development program. Before joining the university in July 1, 1963, as assistant to the vice-president for new develop-
ment, McLaughlin served as deputy director of Dade County Department of Hospitals and deputy director of Jackson Memorial Hospital. He had coordinated Jackson’s $10 million expansion program from 1949 to 1955.
Dr. James J. Carney, who was appointed dean of faculties, in September, 1961, headed the university’s 10-year planning committee. He had previously served as chairman of the finance department of UM.
Planning for the new medical school complex will be handled through the office of Dean of the School of Medicine, Dr. Hayden C. Nicholson. A former executive director of the Hospital Council of Greater New York, he joined the university in March, 1962. At that time, Dr. Nicholson said, “One cannot help being impressed by the remarkable development of the UM School of Medicine in the 10 years since its founding ... I am sure this development must reflect the determination of the university administration to have an out-

It is with mixed emotions that some students have greeted ; news of the $93 million dollar development program.

THE FIRST FIVE YEARS

•	Medical Center $21,892,000
The University of Miami will spend $93 million within the next ten years for renovation and expansion. At last Saturday’s two conferences — one for student leaders, the other for die press — Donald V. Stophlet, vice-president for development, outlined the university’s future.

Humanities Won’t Be Neglected
The sudden emphasis on science by no means indicates that the arts and humanities will be neglected, Donald Stophlet, vice-president for development declared Wednesday.
There is no comparison between facilities in the science area and in the area of the arts, he said. “Just look at the Lowe Art Gallery and compare it with the physics laboratory, for example, conditions are very different.”
Later stages of the program will provide for the arts and humanities.
Dr. E. Morton Miller, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences noted that tfye arts and humanities need much less than the sciences to operate.
‘The most important thing needed to study arts and humanities is a library, and we have a good one,” he said.
GOALS COME CLOSER
With the Golden Anniversary Development Program, the University of Miami is demonstrating its faith in the vision and tenacity of its founders to seek for this community a great university.
We have in our hands, now, the awesome responsibility for solidifying their dreams in the natural sciences and medicine.
It is my heartfelt hope that each of our trustees will accept soberly his responsibility for personal support of these necessary goals, — Henry King Stanford, President,
pleted by 1975 — UM’s 56th anniversary.
Included in the first 5-year-phase are three new buildings at Jackson Memorial Hospital and one main campus building behind the Ritcher Library on the present temporary parking lot. The building will be for chemistry and zoology laboratories and classrooms. This structure will replace the out-dated North Campus science building. The radio-tele-vision-film department will also move to main campus.
While this building is going up on main campus, construction will also be in progress on the medical school buildings at Jack-son. One of these will house the departments of anatomy, biochemistry, microbiology, physiology, pharmacology, and pathology. Another will be for teaching laboratories and the basic sci-ence departments.
The third building is really two wings of one building which

will be constructed at different times. The first wing will be for animal facilities.
The second phase will be the erection of another building behind the library to round out the science center. This will house the botany, physics, geology and mathematics departments. These courses are now taught in the shacks and scattered classrooms around main campus.
Also included in Phase H is the completion of the medical school complex. These buildings will include a med school library, completion of the animal facilities, a major auditorium and lecture halls, advanced teaching and research facilities, and miscellaneous site work.
In the five years from 1970 to 1975 other main campus buildings monies will be used to establish a $16 million endowment fund to be divided between student aid and professorships. Also by 1975, additional construction, expansions and renovations will take place on classrooms, laboratories and dormitories.
By 1975 the total spent for new and remodeled buildings will be $93 million.
At this time the university’s most pressing problem is how to raise this staggering sum. Most of it will be raised through gifts. The school will also apply for government loans through the National Institute of Health; the National Science Foundation; the Medical School Facility legislation; and the Higher Education Facility Program.
Said Stophlet, “We will get the money with blood, sweat and tears and I assure you it will be a lot of sweat.”
