byBobTulini A $6.8 million construction project will begin next spring that will nearly double the existing space at Fordham Law School. University President James C. Finlay, S.J. announced last week that the Law School is currently conducting a fundraising campaign to raise the $6.8 million for the project. Ap- proximately $3.7 million of the $6.8 million goal had already been raised between. July 1, 1981 and November 3, 1982, and most of the remaining $3.1 million is expected to be raised by July 1, 1983. So far, $3.5 million has come from alumni of the 77-year-olcLLaw School, with $2 million of that coming from a bequest from alumnus LeoT. Kissam. This construction project is the first priority for funds from an 11-year, University-wide campaign intended to raise $55 million by the year 1991 for building, renovation, and im- provements in faculty and academics. 1 1 1 The constuction plans call for a new four-story building with a total area of 50,000 •iiiiii!. . . !]) square feet, to be connected with the existing three-story Law School Building, as well as the addition of two floors adding 20,000 square feet on the top of the existing building. 'his construction, which students and faculty said has been sorely needed and which Dean "I" the Law School John D. Feerick said "is absolutely essential," would give the Law School a total of approximately 170,000 square feet. A new 256 seat lecture hall, two 140 seat lecture halls, and enlargement of the library *ith new study and reading rooms are the main features of the construction plans. Wank Adams Slavin and Associates, the architect for the renovations of New Hall and '-"•kin Hall, drew up the plans for the project. A construction company has not yet been selected. The work is expected to be completed by the fall 1984. 2/THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11,1982/THE RAM
