* From Page 1 should help the situation. In the future the music depart ment is hoping for a new music building to be built on the same block with the au#itorium. Originally McMaster was designed as an elementary school and the building doesn't meet the needs of a music school today. Acoustics are poor and the sounds from one studio interfere with another. Also, the humidity is bad for instruments. ' Other areas experiencing space shortages and some solutions are: 1. art department - Space in Booker T. Washington will be available this fall. 2. student affairs - At present student affairs is located in the rented Pendleton Building. Except for the desire to move, there is no immediate solution. 3. administration - University officials hope the Senate Street Federal Building will be available for use. Now space is being rented at 1800 Gervais St. 4. psychology department - Space in the Dorn apartment News I Free Tennis Free tennis clinic for children 6 through 12 at Bell Camp, Monday through Friday, 1:00 to 3:00 starting Monday July 21.

We are still catching up." Difficulties in long range planning have been another problem, Davis said. "We didn't know of the Gambrell money until a few weeks before it became available. That required some rearranging and removed some facilities used by regional cam puses. Those are some of the things that are difficult to forecast," he added. The source of funds for all projects comes from several areas Pharmacy ] $2.3 Millior From Sta A $2.3 million grant awarded thi ment of Health, Education and Wel: of Pharmacy solve its space prol Patterson, said Monday.

"To some degree, we have not recently gotten state support for renovation and capital construction projects we have proposed," Davis said. "The space shortage is not a crisis but we don't have a lot of extra space. There are several particular cases where it would help to have $2-4 million in renovation money."

Barnwell, Hamilton, Davis, and McKissick are other buildings needing severe remodeling. University officials say that better planning and a slower growth rate would help the situation. "The kind of growth phase we went through for about 10 years will generate some dif ficulties and gaps in your planning. It is hard to stay abreast of that unless you have unlimited funding and we don't have that," Davis said. "I think in three to five years our space situation will be good. Just opening Gambrell Hall will help. "The thing we have to explain to people funding the University is that you have to begin setting aside for funding and renovation. You must have'a sufficient main tenance and renovation plan once you get things built ." The basic priority in allocating additional. space is need. Departments must make a case for their need and show planning for their particular situation. "You have more cases of need than money for space," Davis said. "The issue is can we respond to the request with as little expensive remodeling as possible." The individual problems are those of space, renovation, and departmental needs. Overall, the view is a different one. The enrollment is stabilizing but the amount of funds has strong limitations. Money to maintain places and capital with which to build is limited now and in the future. "Looking at it from two things, we feel the future is not going to be in building but in shuffling departments around," Brunton said. "Totally, the University's problems are going to be making the most efficient use of the space available." Ph. 799-2575 ) CEE ESSION LL NIGHT DIAY WEDNESDAY itE 9PM
