M. MINETTE MASSEY
Achieves A First
Med School To Expand
UM’s Board of Trustees Tuesday took a major step toward expanding the University's medical school.
The board approved tentative multi-million dollar expansion plans, to build a 230,900 square-foot wing in the Medical Research Building at Jackson Memorial Hospital.
The plans, drawn up by medical consultant Lester Gorsline, is based on a six-month survey of space requirements needed in the near future.
The only lag is money — or rather lack of it. So far there are no funds available to finance the
move.
Current plans call for nine million dollars to construct and equip the wing and another nine million to he raised by endowment to m intain cost of the wing.
The ever-growing medical school had a 274 enrollment last year. It is expected to increase 20 per cent within the next three years.
DORM WORK STARTS; WILL OPEN IN 1962
Thursday, August 3, marked the ground breaking of the University’s new air-conditioned residence hail for women.
The seven-story building will be almost an exact replica of the present New Hall (720 Hall) which was completed in 1958. The two buildings will be connected by the Great Lounge.
Both buildings are modern and functional in design. The major difference between the two residence halls will be the central air-conditioning and heating in the new building. Individual heaters in the rooms provide the only climate control in the New Hall.
The financing of both residence halls is through the Community Facilities Administration of the federal government Housing and Home Finance Administration.
The new building will be ready for occupancy in I September, 1962, in time for the fall semester.
