University of Jerome's College January,1981. Architect's rendering of the new wing to be attached to the present library wing. Building programme announced by Fr. Choate Construction of a new wing to ease some overcrowding and allow consolidation of current College programmes has been announced by Fr. Norman Choate, C.R., President. Expected to begin in mid 1981, the wing will include eight offices, three classrooms, a meeting room, common room and large assembly hall. Father Choate points out that this new facility, which will be attached to the present library wing, is not a sign of expansion of academic programmes at St. Jerome's. For years the popular Family Life and Sex Education programme and, more recently, the Institute for Studies in Learning Disabilities have had to use classroom space on the University of Waterloo campus. The new facility will allow us to "bring some of these existing programmes home." The large assembly hall has been planned with these programmes in mind. The new wing also will house a Centre for Catholic Experience, now being established, which will address itself to contemporary issues within the Church. The Centre will sponsor renewal programmes and provide a forum where issues of faith and catechetics can be discussed. A lecture series also is anticipated. Upcoming issues of Update will keep you informed as to the progress of the building programme.
