Chemical Engineering Building

The Board then reviewed the sketches for the high Voltage Laboratory and Chemical Engineering
Building, for which a conditional capital outlay of $250,000 has been made.

It was pointed out that Governor Tuck had released $10,000.00 for the preparation of the
Plans and Specifications and such work as the University may elect to do, and that the balance of the
appropriation would be made available when required.

After a study of the sketches and being assured that they incorporated the requirements of
the Engineering Department, the Board approved the plans with the understanding that more complete
plans would be presented at a later date.
