HA&M’s Booml
Today’s multi-million dollar building: boom at A&M is
staggering-, compared with the institution’s initial structure
built almost 100 years ago.
Old Main, the first campus facility, was completed in
1876, five years after the Texas Legislature appropriated
$75,000 to pay for the dormitory-classroom combination.
Two additional appropriations and hot words flowed
before the structure was finally completed. Contractors
caught the brunt of the Legislature because the foundation
kept sinking into the “quagmire ground.”
Foundation problems are more easily solved today, and
A&M students moving into the new dormitories this fall
will be afforded more luxuries than their predecessors.
Old Main residents gathered their own wood to fire
stoves in each room. They depended upon nature to supply
their water needs. Rain water drained from the roofs into
huge cisterns for storage, Ernest Langford, university ar
chivist and professor emeritus of architecture, recalls.
Approximately $4.7-million worth of dormitories will be
opened in September. Heating will not be a problem; in
fact the housing facilities also will be airconditioned.
But Howard Badgett, physical plant director, admits
that keeping up with increased electrical and water demands
of the university is a struggle.
New additions to the campus, including a $6-million
cyclotron, soon will demand as much electricity as the uni
versity currently uses.
So the university’s power plant is undergoing a $2.5-
million expansion.
Another project soon to begin is a $l-million space
center to house activation analysis and other space-related
teaching and research activities.
Today’s $14-million building program, either approved
or under construction, will be followed in the near future
with an equal amount of facilities.
One perplexing problem that exists today failed to dis
turb early day administrators—automobile parking.
“Another good thing about the cyclotron is that cars
can be parked there too,” Badgett said with a grin.
