Business college awaits move!
New building
to provide
advantages
By Lisa Messer
The Battalion
The upcoming move of the
College of Business from the
Blocker Building to the newly
built Wehner Building on West
Campus will provide business
students and faculty with mod
ern facilities and equipment
and more space.
Dr. Benton Cocanougher,
dean of business administra
tion, said the Wehner Building
will be open in time for spring
semester classes.
“Most of the moving will be
done over the semester break,”
Cocanougher said. “A few non-
departmental entities will be
moving at the beginning of De
cember, but most of the college
will move at the end of the se
mester or over the break.”
Dr. Dean Wichem, associate
dean of business administra
tion, said the classroom facili
ties in the Wehner Building
will be more technologically ad
vanced than the facilities in
Blocker.
Podiums at the front of each
classroom will give instructors
control of extensive audio-visu
al systems, including computer
generated displays.
Cocanougher said the class
rooms are well-designed for all
multimedia uses.
“The classrooms are state of
the art,” Cocanougher said.
“They will all have audio-visual
capabilities. They’re really
first class.”
Many of the classrooms will
be case-style, on tiers, where
the instructor will be able to
walk down the middle of the
room.
Faculty members will benefit
lipiii s
from the relocation because of
the improved computing infra
structure, which will give them
better computing links at their
desktop computers.
Julie Gilliam, a member of
the business fraternity Alpha
Kappa Psi, said student organi
zations will also benefit from
the relocation.
“It will be more organized,”
Gilliam said. “Instead of
boards to publicize on, we’ll
have cubicles, like in the
Koldus Building.”
Mary Frontiera, president of
the business student council,
said the new building will be an
advantage to both students and
the College of Business.
“The atmosphere will be dif
ferent,” Frontiera said. “The
organizations will be more to
gether. You’ll be able to talk to
people, instead of just looking

“The new building will also
help establish credibility for
the college,” she said. “We’ll
stand out more to companies
and corporations from a re
cruiting standpoint. It’s a
great opportunity for the Col
lege of Business.”
Cocanougher said one of the
main reasons for moving the
College of Business is the lack
of space in the Blocker Build
ing.
A&M currently has the sec
ond largest undergraduate
business program in the nation,
and the College of Business has
almost doubled in student en
rollment since moving into
Blocker in 1980.
The College of Business will
be the sole occupant of the four-
story, 190,000-square-foot
Wehner Building.
The relocation will nop
provide more room forbusii
classes, organizations anil
tivities, but will also relievtl
overcrowding in Blocker.
Glenn Dowling, directai
A&M's planning and i
tional analysis, said the

Dowling said the deans
the College of Science, the

nomics will move into

Part of the math departr
