Chemistry Building for Ole Miss Urged by Supporters
In January 1920, Mississippi legislators meet in Jackson to decide university funding. A call is made for a new Chemistry building at Ole Miss, citing a seventy year old unsafe lab, insufficient classrooms and desks, poor gas and lighting, missing office space for faculty, and overall hindrance to medical and science education. The plea argues a proper facility will elevate the university and state prospects. Also noted is H M Henderson’s appendicitis operation at the university hospital after a trip from Holly Springs.
