UMass 1968

Capturing the height of the building boom of the 1960s, this map from the Student Handbook of 1968 shows a campus radically transformed from only two years before, with the new Lederle Graduate Research Center, the Campus Center, Tobin Hall, Herter Hall, Thompson Hall, the Graduate Library, and parts of Southwest Residential College all in planning or under construction. Haigis Mall also makes its appearance.
