24 16 classnotes Dear Alumni & Friends:

With the completion of Muskingum’s Communication Arts Complex (CAC), we welcome this extraordinary facility as our newest educational venue. The CAC not only provides much-needed curricular and co-curricular space but also adds great beauty and definition to our campus. Its existence is the fulfillment of a long-standing dream at Muskingum College.

While the College steadfastly pursues dreams like the new CAC, we have not lost sight of our continuing obligation to our existing buildings as well as to our overall infrastructure. Accordingly, even while we were building the CAC, the College was attending to many long-deferred maintenance needs on campus. For example, we have repaired and replaced the deteriorating masonry on the buildings throughout the academic quadrangle; we have renovated the stadium; we have added new water lines; we are replacing the roof of John Glenn Gymnasi- um; and finally, we have begun the process of bringing significant new electrical capacity to our campus. Each of these improvements ensures the long-term health of our facilities and creates new opportunities for tomorrow’s students.

Over the next decade, Muskingum College will continue to move forward with our renovation and construction plan. Simultaneously, we will remain mindful of our challenge to update our infrastructure in a manner designed to better serve Muskingum students, today and tomorrow. These twin goals will require a delicate balancing act and a dedicated focus. Our efforts will help ensure that Muskingum College will remain an excellent educational institution for future generations.

As we pursue our dreams and remain mindful of our need to continually improve our physical infrastructure, we thank each of you for your commitment, loyalty and support. Together, we are building a stronger Muskingum!

Sincerely,

Anne C. Steele President book notes

8 ● Muskingum College Magazine ● Spring 2004 Admissions Office As the front door to Muskingum, the admissions office plays a vital role. Following careful assessment of facilities and function, the admissions office in

Montgomery Hall was renovated. The transformation is a great success. Prospective students and their families enjoy a welcoming, comfortable and dignified environment during their interviews.

Aseparate, dedicated operations area is responsible for the mailing of the communications that are integral to the admissions process.

Drive on the original site of the Mace

House (South Street).

10 ● Muskingum College Magazine ● Spring 2004 Parking AFTER Muskingum will always be a walking campus, but as the college has grown, so has the need to accommodate parking on its perimeters. There are expanded, upgraded parking areas on both residence hills. A large, tree-lined, terraced parking corridor was constructed concurrently with the Communication Arts Complex.

This serves the western entrances to campus and, as a result, transforms and redefines the western border of campus to Comin Street. BEFORE

Muskingum’s faculty. Thanks to the ingenuity of Dr. Raymond Rataiczak, chair of the chemistry department,

Boyd Science Center is a model of multi-use space utilization. BSC

Rooms 239 and 204, both fully- equipped geology labs, also serve as

general-purpose

classrooms, “smart” classrooms and are

home to 25-station open computer labs.

12 ● Muskingum College Magazine ● Spring 2004 Student Ideas Much that has been accomplished on campus is due to the initiative and proposals of students.

Students worked with the administration to develop residence hall computer labs. Each standing residence–Finney, Patton/Kelley, Thomas, Moore/

Memorial–has a fully-equipped computer lab and student computer manager who provides support.

The college fitness facilities serve both intercollegiate athletics teams and individual use, so resources are often stretched. Students identified under-used areas in John Glenn Gym and proposed that they be variously adapted for use as weight- training rooms and aerobics rooms dedicated to individual use.

The popular Kelley Coffee House was an idea

that originated with

students, who also

worked with architects

on budgeting, planning

and overseeing its

construction.

Dr. Alan J. Chaffee is known among his peers and by hun- dreds of Muskingum students and alumni as a gifted educator and Shakespearean scholar. Less known is that, for over twenty years, he has been engaged, nearly single-handedly, in the preservation of a pristine piece of Ohio’s pioneer history. Professor Chaffee’s “stone house project” is a remarkable story that continues to unfold. Alarge two-story stone house sits at the bottom of the lane, looking as though it has always been there.
