While college officials originally asked for $684,132 for expansion of the extension and public service program, the commission recommended: a total of $401,000. The bulk of the sum requested would have gone for salary increases, equipment, and books to improve the graduate school. The commission also turned down requests for air conditioning for the library building, estimated at $60,000; a new physical education building and gymnasium. $913,000; and a mathematics and business administration building, $426,000. Tuition Raise On the other hand, the commission recommended that tuition be raised by $19.00 per year for state students, with no increase recommended for out-of-state students. This increase would provide funds for faculty salaries and the scholarship program. The recommended budget would provide for three new instructional positions and $161,560 for faculty salary increase. Also recommended by the commission was a bond issue of $500,- 000 for a student center. This a- mount is in addition to $400,000 to be made available through federal funds. The $500,000 bond issue would be repaid through movies raised from the operation of the student center. The commission also recommended $110,000 for a new boiler at the college, a boiler plant, and $54,500 for the renovation of Murphy Hall. New Building The greatest recommendation for any single item was for a new biology building estimated to cost $818,000. This building would provide six classrooms, 19 teaching laboratories, 18 research laboratories, and a lecture room which would seat 150. Of the $3,344,000 requested for capital improvements the commission recommended only $1,641,750, but the total amount recommended by the commission is 11 percent greater than the amount appropriated for the 1959-61 biennium.
