A university task force considers two proposals for seven second floor Norris Hall rooms after the April 16 campus killings. One plan creates centers for violence prevention and student service, the other adds videoconferencing labs and an engineering learning center. The group will forward a recommendation to President Charles Steger.

Tropics belt expansion could bring drier U S Southwest weather
A Nature Geoscience study reports the tropical atmospheric belt has widened by 2 to 4.8 degrees latitude since 1979, expanding 140 to 330 miles and likely increasing aridity at the edges such as the U S Southwest. Scientists weigh global warming, ozone depletion, and El Nino as possible causes.
