Volume 56 Number 2 By Steve Hudomiet The DePaul School of Music formerly located at Lewis Center, began operation on the Lincoln Park Campus on Monday, September 19. According to Mr. Richard Kennell, Music School AdmissionCoordinator.theinitial phase of the move involving the creation of faculty offices, is complete and the facilities were ready for use at the beginning of this week. The School of Music will occupy the Stone Administration Building on the property purchased from McCormick Theological Seminary last winter. A small part of the library building next door will be temporarily used for rehearsal studios until the needed facilities can be built in the Stone Building.Kennell commented that the reason for the move Uptown was lack of space at Lewis Center. Downtown, many fac ulty members were without offices and there was only limited rehearsal space of poor acoustic quality. Kennell stated, "The facilities Uptown offer increased and improved space over what we had downtown. We now have increased space for classrooms, rehearsal studios, and performances." Kennell commented that the Music School move may cause some faculty and students minor travel problems Uptown but the improved facilities outweigh the inconveniences. Commenting on the move, Dr. Fred Miller, Dean of the School of Music, said, "Phase one of the move, creating offices and classrooms, is completed now. Phase two, including the creation of teaching studios, transformation of the chapel into a concert hall, and acoustical work will be done in the coming months." Miller also commented on the few problems relating to the change of location by say- Pamela frierson.

"We're all here for the business of an education," Frierson commented, "I don't think a class will touch it all-it is just human interaction."

Frierson said, "We didn't have box lunches this year." "About 180 attended the dinner. There were about 50 students," Frierson stated, "I'd venture to say that one-third to one-half of the new minority students were there. We also had a good group of students who volunteered." She said, "I'd like to become more involved not only with the freshmen and sophomores, but with the juniors and seniors, too. That's my tentative plan. After the dust settles in the first couple of weeks, we'll see where we're going."
