Tear Down Old Main?

Kaiser, Harvey H.

AGB Reports, v24 n2 p8-11 Mar-Apr 1982

The question of renovation (renewal) versus replacement of campus landmarks is discussed. Historical and architectural values must be considered along with technical problems and academic programs. It is suggested that an upper limit, perhaps 65 percent of a replacement cost, should be fixed for renovation. (Author/MLW)
