Academic Building
Continued from Page 1
Woodcock said the preservation of the Aca
demic Building was a high priority when the
University restored the building's exterior sev
eral years ago.
"When the building was restored, enor
mous pains were taken to maintain historical
authenticity," he said. "The designers thought
the Academic Building was very important to
Texas A&M and were prepared to spend more
money than necessary on a building of its im
portance."
The architect in charge of the restoration
was anxious to retain the wooden windows on
the building. Woodcock said.
"He felt any alternate window would
change the appearance and render it not the
original building," he said. "After a consider
able amount of discussion that went up to the
Board of Regents, he won the argument."
Woodcock said the current improvements
seek to find a window that will serve as a com
parable replacement, given the fact that Texas
A&M wishes to use its money wisely and
doesn't want windows requiring constant care.
"There are a lot of wooden windows on the
market available with vinyl insulation, which
makes them easier to care for," he said. "They
require less maintenance than plain wooden
windows and are comparable in appearance
with the windows that are there now/'
Woodcock said he understands Texas A&M
must work within a budget, however, he feels
the University needs to take into account a re
sponsibility to architectural heritage.
"I think the Academic Building is an impor
tant part of Texas A&M that deserves proper
respect," he said.
