A completion date has not been set for the new registra tion center, Assistant Regis trar Willis S. Ritchey said. The Century Construction Co. has been working for less than a year to convert the pavillion. Work has pro le mostuitBceeded quickly because most andtlitii °f '-he wor k has been done in- > r kp ra ,| f : side the structure. Ritchey said the old build ing was stripped to the walls, and 6 feet of dirt which co vered the concrete floor was removed to allow a second floor to be built. “People will be suprised at the final product,” he said. “They won’t know at one time it was an animal science pavil lion.” The new center will have permanent offices rather than tables separated by partitions. Ritchey said he hopes perma nent offices will enable stu dents to handle registration problems in a more private atmosphere. Getting registration work ers out of the flow of traffic and into offices will increase efficiency, he said. Student workers will be hired during registration to direct students to the proper offices. People involved in the re gistration process will occupy the first floor of the new cen- ■ He said ie coedira ho were e tradiiioi lent suppii: tal, and has been cipationii; i the ft® amidatk aefo can bet er Aggie J let's tuti: and leatt xt timew tice eark ter. The floor will contain the registrar’s office and a place for senior ring distribution, and the financial aid depart ment will have a designated area for the distribution of short-term loans. The pavilion also will in clude a snack bar, run by the Department of Food Services. Ritchey said it probably will be similar to the snack bar in the basement of the Memorial Student Center. The Student Activities Office will move from its offices on the second floor of the MSC to the second floor of the new registration center. Dr. Carolyn Adair, director of student activities, said that Student Government offices will also move. The Student “Y” and Fish Camp headquar ters will move to the pavilion from the YMCA building. The new building will offer space for 20 more student activities cubicles bringing the total number of cubicles to 65. Cubicles serve as offices for recognized student organiza tions. The other 45 cubicles will remain in the Student Programs Office, on the second floor of the MSC. Adair said she has mixed emotions about splitting up the Student Activites Office because the Student Finance Center, which all of the stu dent organizations use, will remain at the MSC. But she said that it will have its be nefits as well. “We will be in our own space — to do as we please,” she said. Ex-ambassador speaks tonight f Robert White, a former U.S. ambassador to El Salvador, will |speak on the volatile situation in fCentral America at 8 tonight at Rudder Theater. I White, who served as ambas sador to El Salvador during the fcarter administration, was in volved in controversies over alleged human rights violations by Salvadoran national guards men. White was also condemned by left-wing rebels for not active- l ly supporting their drive to top- » pie the government. , B White will discuss the explo- ' f siveness of the region and the possibility that it can solve its own problems. White has served I as a career diplomat in Nicar agua, Honduras, the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, Uruguay, Barbados and Grenada. He is presently a senior associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. David Hamilton, chairman of the MSC Political Forum, said White was invited last spring to speak exclusively on El Salvador but is speaking on the entire re gion now because of recent events in other Central Amer ican countries. Admission to the program is free, and a public reception will be held immediately after the program in the Rudder Exhibit Hall. IS Sen.
