“LINFIELD COLLEGE, McMinnville (Special) – Remodeling of the old college commons in Pioneer Hall and other work in Melrose Hall is being completed here during Christmas vacation.
“The commons area has not been used since the new Dillin
Hall was opened two months ago. Soon the old commons will be converted into classroom,
laboratory and office space of the art, psychology and philosophy departments.
“Work on the second floor of Melrose will arrange an area to
be used as a joint reception room and individual offices for the deans of
faculty and administration and the college chaplain.
“All these campus remodeling jobs are expected to be
completed early in the new year.”
