State College Plans Growth for Next Ten Years
Las Cruces New Mexico January 8 223000 dollars is the total maximum request for the coming biennium presented by President H L Kent of the New Mexico College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts to the Educational Commission. The minimum request for buildings and repairs is 53000 dollars. A ten year building program estimates total 597310 dollars and would exceed 60000 dollars annually. The most desired building is a large fireproof structure for the library agriculture biology and related collections. A 200000 dollar request for this building or 125000 as a partial alternative is proposed, with 20000 for a home economics building if needed. The maximum biennial building request is 200000 dollars and the minimum 30000. An additional 23000 dollars for repairs and improvements is requested to reduce operating costs. Kent notes the recommendations were sent last spring and contend the state may be unable to fund new construction during the droughts. The college could manage without new buildings but needs 23000 dollars for repairs and adequate maintenance funds to aid farming and livestock industry efforts.
