Here Is A Shot Of The Rear Of The Union Addition.
Union Add Features
Carpets, Ballroom
By SALLY HAGOOD
This week the new addition to
the University Union will be
completed and ready for use. The
most impressive feature of the
new addition is the ball room
which has a parquet floor and a
ceiling that will provide for good
acoustics. The ballroom will be
available for lectures for 450,
banquets for 400 and dances for
600 people.
A lounge carpeted in moss
green is located in the area to
the right of the Information Desk
and runs the length of the
building. As well as providing an
area for students to talk and,
relax, the lounge will be used for
receptions, displays and exhibits.
The middle floor of the three-
story expansion is occupied by
the cafeteria. The original ca
pacity of 225 has been increas
ed to 750 seats, A balcony jnst
outside the cafeteria provides
space for outside activities aud
possibly outside dining.
On the lower floor is the
Student Government Office, the
Union Office and the Newspaper
and Annual Office. Across the
hall from these organizational
offices there are rooms for
printing and developing film and
a large all-purpose room.
A hobby shop occupies the
entire end of the section. This
hobby shop is specially designed
for ceramics and woodworking
and has waist-high cabinets on
three walls.
This lower area can be closed
off from the rest of the Union
so that students with permis
sion to use this little corner of
Heaven can return to work
after the Union has been closed
for the night.
The addition, with its large
ballroom and three extra meeting
rooms, will allow the Library to
use the Auditorium for book-
stacks. After Commencement, no
meetings will be scheduled in the
library.
The entire expansion is being
financed by a Housing and
Finance Agency loan which will
be repaid by student fees.
