CLINCH VALLEY COLLEGE ARCHITECTURE

President Darden discussed his plan for a simple, functional type of
architecture for the Clinch Valley College, and exhibited drawings for the
proposed academic building at the College, as designed by Messrs. Johnson,
Craven, and Gibson.

There were expressions of general approval for the overall plan, but Mr.
Greear suggested that the architects' attention be drawn to the difficulties in
temperature control that might result from such extensive use of glass.

The Board resolved that the plans be approved as presented, subject to Mr.
Greear's proviso.
