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 AF$ Life In Norway 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.

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.
