with the addition of staff and the
increased volume of planning
work for the scheduled
September, 1971 opening.
The college first was housed in
a State Senate committee room in
the Legislative Building. Fourteen
months ago, the small staff moved
to rented quarters at 1020 East
Fifth Avenue, near downtown
I Olympia. Since then, the staff has
Nye Writes About

in the downtown for two days. It
was the biggest catastrophy in
Norway ill 50 years, and worst of
all, if you can believe it, the very
next Sunday we had another real
hurricane, although not as strong
as the first and what few trees
were left, came down. The winds
for these two ranged up to
110-115 m.p.h. Two men were
killed by falling trees and luckily
only two small fishing boats sunk.
However six men were drowned.
lrs a really strange feeling to face
a disaster with a strange people.
You don't know what to say or
do - so you only laugh it off as a
bad .joke and clean up the mess.
Other than this, things have
been really okay. i've had lots of
letters from Shelton and 1 really
appreciate them. i'm working on
answering them .... but it takes a
while.
Yesterday my family and I
went by automobile to l.istc in
the West. ttere we saw ar,cient
engravings in the rocks of Viking
ships. But what really interested
me was how flat it was. For as far
as you could see it was as fiat as
Eastern Washington, with the
same stubby grass and bare
stones. Norway is st) very much
like Washington that ! can not
even believe that I am in Europe.
However, one hour in a Norwegian
class, and I sort of start to get the
idea! School here is entirely
different, system wise, than
Shelton High School, but the kids
and teachers are pretty much the
same. I will go into this in a later
letter. I haven't enough room
here.
I travel to Oslo the capitol this
Friday on a Senior Class (!ultt, re
trip, and I am really looking
flrward to lliis. We'll go by trlin
to Oslo al,d tay for lout days
going to Operas, Ballets, and best
of all the Norwegian National
Theater. I hope to learn a lot but
1 think irll be fun too. ttello to

grown from seven to 23 persons
and more persons will be added in
the coming months.
These growing pains first
caused a shift of six persons from
the downtown office to a trailer
house on the campus site. Then,
to accommodate the other
staffers and to cut down on
growing communications
problems resulting from the split
operation, the college decided to
move everyone to campus
property in still more temporary
quarters.
Consequently, an exisiting
campus building - formerly home
of the Probst Custom Meat
Service operation - has been
remodeled to provide space for 2 I
persons. College operations will
be moved, bag and baggage, to
that building Oct. 18.
When the Probst Building is
outgrown, additional staff
members will be housed in
portable units (perhaps small
buildings or trailer houses), which
will be moved to the site when
the need arises.
The new temporary quarters
are located near what eventually
will become the academic core of
the campus (actually a little
southeast). These quarters will be
utilized until administrative lnd
faculty offices are ready in the
library building, which will be
under construction early next
year and completed in late
Summer, 1971.
Even the office space in the
library will be temporary because
the present plan calls for phasing
out non-library operations as the
collegte grows to its project
nti(-1930 enrollment of 12,000.
At least those moves are down the
road a bit.
For Shelton-area residents, the
following directional information
may be helpful: ileaded east on
the A b er d e e n-Shelton-Olympia
freeway, motorists should turn
onto Kaiser Road (which requires
a left-turn at a freeway
intersection not controled by an
overpass). Drivers then should
head north on Kaiser Road until
reaching Old Ilighway 101, tnrn
left and head west until reaching
Overhulse Road, turn right and go
north until reaching a directional
sign indicating the roadway (to
the left) heading to the I'robst
Building.
An alternative would be to tnrn
left at the Mud Bay hceway
crossing, then turn right ova the
Old Highway and head toward
Olympia, again turning (this time
left) at Overhulse Road.
Ultimately, a freeway-type
connection will tie the campus to
the ely m pia-Shelton-Aberdeen
freeway, but that's a few years
away.
