The new $2.3 million Plant Sci
ences Building now under construc
tion east of the Biological Sciences
Building promises to be “one of
the best in the nation," Dean of
Agriculture Dr. R. E. Patterson
has predicted.
The building, which is scheduled
for occupation in September of
1962, will house both graduate and
undergraduate classrooms and lab
oratory facilities, the dean said.
Patterson was particularly high
in praise for the 23 laboratory
rooms being planned in the build
ing. He said their temperature and
humidity controls will be particu
larly outstanding and much better
than any previous facilities at
A&M.
In addition four 24 x 36-foot
classrooms and a much larger
classroom are being planned. Tne
larger classroom, approximately
twice as large as the other four,
will be equipped with a
that will enable it to be used as
two separate rooms at specific
times.
