Law School
Granted Fund
For Building
A new University Law
School building was assured
last Saturday when Gov. J.
Strom Thurmond signed ihe
annual deficiency appropria
tions which included a provi
sion for $250,000 for construc
tion.
Funds were first included in
the bill by the House of Rep.
resentativesin the early stages
of passage, but were removed
in the debates before final
passage in that house. Then
the Senate, in a quick move,
returned the item for the law
school building last Friday
before it gave its approval
stamp to the bill.
The university offeials have
been waiting until the end of
this session before making
any definite plans for building,
but Pres. Norman M. Smith
said early this month that aft
er the legislature adjourned
more definite announcements
for construction would be
mande.
Nu announcement has been
made yet as to whether the
new building would be on the
main campus or in some other
location.
