A Place oftheir Own

Home , Sweet Home " — probably the mos t over-used and undervalued cliche w e had, ma y have been muc h more under-valued because w e never stop to consider the truth of it

Th e average professor had his ow n interpretation of it — something called "Office,

Sweet Office."

Th e office for the professor was a special place. It was a reprieve from the classroom It was a place to relax. It was somewhere to toss all the books and papers Basically, it was a hom e away from home .

For some professors, 1988/ 89 represented a mov e of that home. Offices that formerly served the Physical Plant, which moved to the North Campus , were converted for faculty use Th e School of Communications moved from DeMoss , the former office being converted into classrooms, to ne w offices located above the post office.

Th e creation of the additional classrooms in DeMos s eliminated the need for two classrooms in Dor m 20, which returned to use as faculty and adln an office decorated with his styrofoam cup collection Professor Charles

Ministrative Offices

Whe n they were not moving, professors mad e themselves at home Unfortunately, not every professor has the luxury of his ow n office. Man y doubled up, sharing the same room

Sometimes, decoration of the office was intentional. However, the majority of office decoration just "kinda happened." A picture here and a do-hicky there, a poster tacked up on the wall and a sign on the door until the office was a reflection of the person or persons wh o occupied it.
