One of the most costly buildings on the new Wake Forest College campus is going to he one of the most used. It is the Center Building, lying on the southern end of a rectangular area that is bordered on the north by Wait Chapel and on each side by boy’s dormitories. The Center Building is a multi-purpose building and reflects an important part of the philosophy behind the new campus. The philosophy requires that the spiritual, physical and recreational needs of the students be met in a relatively small area retaining the atmosphere of the home. The Center Building will house dining facilities, college administration and student offices and class rooms. With Wait Chapel aimed at meeting student spiritual needs, the Center Building, lying just south, will fulfill some of the more practical needs. William A.
