CONSIDERATION OF PRELIMINARY PLANS FOR NEW BUILDINGS:

The special business before the meeting was the consideration of preliminary plans for location
of certain of the proposed new buildings. The locations selected for the various buildings were given careful
study during which the President invited the local Building Committee to give their views thereon. The main
consideration was given the location of the Women's Buildings, and it was decided that they be located at
the point shown on the plans - northwest of Scott Stadium, and the architects were instructed to move the
cafeteria forward nearer the pond, and open up the grouping of the dormitories to give more air around them.
