Planning correspondence, 1967-1970

The Shanklin Laboratory renovation records concern the Biology Department’s involvement with the proposed renovations of Shanklin Laboratory, occurring between 1967 and 1978. Materials included in this collection are planning correspondence (memoranda, letters, and personal notes), itemized work estimates, cost estimates and bills, blueprints, contracts, and floor plans (both formal and informal). Haines, Lundberg and Waehler were the major architects involved in this project. Science Center Director Ross Gortner, Facilities Planner Robert Wilson, Vice President of Business Affiars Donald Bruster, and Professors Vincent W. Cochrane, Earl Hanson, and Barry Keifer are the primary correspondents in the collection.
