PROPOSED FINE ARTS BUILDING

Dr. Combs reported that the Governor has approved drawings and specifications for the proposed
Fine Arts Building and authorized the college to seek bids for construction. The bids are to
be opened on Thursday, December 14. In view of the fact that the Board must approve any contract
which may be awarded, it would save time if the December meeting of the Board could be held on Friday,
December 15, instead of the regular date which would be December 8. Otherwise it would be necessary
to delay the whole matter for at least another month.

The Board approved the request of President Combs that the December meeting of the Board
be changed from the regular date, which would fall on the 8th, to December 15th, in order to consider
bids for the Fine Arts Building as soon as possible.
