In the fall of 1959 three new residence halls, the first

of 152 seats. Work started on the two-story addition to the
cafeteria, the new handball and tennis courts were completed
and bids were opened for the enology plant and construction of parking lots for residents of the FSC dormitories.
Parking fees were levied by the state for the first time—$13
for hunting privileges and $5 a month for a reserved spot.
The new $1,600,000 speech-arts building and $550,000
social science building were completed in the fall of I960.
With the completion of the speech-arts building the old

a master of arts in 14 fields and a master of science in five.
On April 11, 1961 the college observed the start of the
celebration marking the 50th anniversary of the college.
