H. Pat terson. Construction on the new building, expected to cost about $550,000, is scheduled to begin early in 1959 after Wade Hampton is torn down. The decision to demolish Wade Hampton came last spring as the need for additional women's dor .nitory space became critical. At Lhat time, Doctor Patterson said, "Wade Hampton is of such lim ed value now that it is not worth renovating and adding to. Its life expectancy has about expired." Wade Hampton was built in 1924 with special appropriated funds. The new dormitory will house 168 girls, more than doubling Wade Hampton's present capacity of 80. On the ground floor will be two sorority or recreation rooms, as well as space for women's physi Val education clas:,es. Also to be provided will be laundry facilities, including washing and drying ma. chinesi. The building will be five stories high in the rear, onl Pickens Street, and four in the front, facing the quadrangle formed by the women's dormitories. In the style of the traditional old University of South Carolina architecture, the new dorm will be covered with grey painted stucco. An elevator has been included in the plans. The dorm's interior will be in Iodern decor, with built-in furni ture in the rooms. Suites will be provided for the hostess and as si:-tait hostess. At the present time, approxi mately 597 girls are living in six dormitories on the University caml) pus. Lockwood-Greene Architects, de signers of the Fresann )ormi tory which was opened in the fall of 1955, lanned the new building. The ntew dormitory wbil be the second to rise on the campus in the past two yeats, as the seven story men's dormitory is exp)ectedl to be completed b)y the fall semes ter-. At present, one segment of the twin-towered building is almost comp)letedl and work on the other is underway. This new modern dor mttitory wvill accommodate approxi nmately 484 students.
