President Reveals Plans For Physics-Math Building Dr. Irwin J. Lubbers, Hope College president, today revealed plans for the next academic building to be built on the college campus—a $750,000 physics-mathematics building. The new building will be erected directly west of the Van Zoeren Library on Graves Place between College and Central Avenues. The third building project in the college's "Looking Ahead With Hope" $3,000,000 development campaign, the building will be similar in architecture to the million-dollar Van Zoeren Library completed last summer. The library was the first project of the campaign; the acquisition and development of 25 acres of land two blocks east of the campus for athletic purposes, the second. Actual construction date has not been determined, according to Dr. Lubbers. The new facility will be L-shaped, the east-west section of the building having three levels. The north-south portion will extend toward Graves Place on the extreme west end of the property. This part of the structure will house two lecture halls. The two sections of the building will be joined by a glass-enclosed lobby. The ground floor of the building will house a mechanical drawing room, radiation lab, dark room, lavatory facilities, storage rooms and mechanical equipment rooms. The first floor will include a receiving room, reading room, storage room, two general physics labs, one advanced physics lab, four project rooms and lavatory facilities. The second floor will have twelve faculty offices, a conference room, electronics lab, five classrooms, four smaller labs and lavatory facilities. The exterior will be designed of solar screening, light yellow brick and glass walls with stone trim. Architects are Ralph Calder and Associates of Detroit.
