"Master Plan" Long-term Goals Described
by: Susan Cartrette
Meredith College is preparing a
Master Plan. Students here today
will only see the initial result, as the
goals are “long-term.”
Ahready, progress has been made
in the addition of the new road and
the security/information gatehouse.
The electronic security system has
• been delayed due to lack of funds
and to advances in technology, but
the conduit is in place under the
main drive.
Three academic buildings are
planned next to the chapel. This
construction will help satisfy the
need for more faculty offices and
specialized classrooms. For ex

might include larger lecture halls,
computer labs and psychology labs.
The building closest to the chapel is
currently being targeted for the
Education and Psychology Depart

removed from the interior of the
campus as defined by the new road.

beltline side of Cate Center and the
new buildings and also to behind
