For New Buildings
And Improvements
By -MICKEY BLACKWELL
The University will make capital improvement re
quests totaling $30,803,000 when the Advisory Budget
Commission meets here Tuesday.
Priority items include a new Law School building and
major additions to the English department building
(Bingham Hall), the Louis Round Wilson Library and
the Carolina Inn.
The $30 million figure is
the Budget Commission may not
recommend some items. Several
hundred thousand dollars,
pledged to the University from
private sources, and matching
funds from the Federal Govern
ment will also reduce the figure
in some areas.
If the top requests are ap
proved, the Law School will
move from Manning Hall to a
site near the Institute of Gov
ernment on the southeast edge
of the campus.
New headquarters for the Law
School have been mentioned . in
the past, but this is the first
time it has received top priority.
UNC officials also are hope
ful that they can convince the
Advisory Budget Commission to
provide money for an addition to
Bingham Hall, home of the Eng
lish Department. This small
building is crammed with thou
sands of students taking English
courses, and officials contend it
needs to be expanded.
Another top priority is a $1,
315,000 addition to the library.
UNC Business Manager Arthur
Branch said that $254,000 of this
has already ' been pledged by
private sources.
Other requests that will be
made to the Advisory Budget
Commission in the realm of
Academic Affairs include: "
A new dramatic art build
ing which would consolidate into
one building the Playmakers
Theatre, scenery shop and facul
ty office space;
Addition to Ackland Art
Center;
Addition to the Institute of
Government building;
Residence Halls for 2,000
students. This is a long-range
projection, and if approved will
provide for new dormitories to
open in the fall of 1967 or 1968.
