State University of Iowa Code for Coeds, 1962-1968

Page 7

   Only a few blocks south on the same street as your Burge, Currier, or Kate Daum "home" Is the center of Iowa City and the hub of campus activity.
   One of the first landmarks you'll notice here is the gold-domed Old Capitol, once home of the state government, now administrative center of the University. Standing in the center of the Pentacrest, surrounded by four of the University's most-used buildings-University Hall, Physics Building, Schaeffer Hall, and Macbride Hall-Old Capitol symbolizes SUI life as its dome sparkles in the sunlight, proudly saluting students, both old and new. 
   Across the street from the Pentacrest shine the neon lights of downtown Iowa City...a university town which caters to YOU as a student. There are two local banks ready to handle your accounts, several department stores for your everyday needs, and for the fashion-conscious coed, many smaller clothing shops with just the selection of college wear to suit your tastes. Also, coming or going, Iowa City is well-equipped to serve your transportation needs with the Rock Island Railroad, Ozark Airlines and bus lines. 
   To the west of the Pentacrest, across the Iowa River, are the University Hospitals (including a Student Health Center designed to meet your medical needs), the new Law Building, the Hawkeye football stadium, the Field House, the recently completed Pharmacy Building, and the men's residence halls, Hillcrest and the Quadrangle. Along the west bank of the river also stand the Art Building and the University Theatre.
   Coming back across the river via the footbridge, you find yourself ready to survey the northern sector of the campus. On the riverbank are the Union, the University Elementary School and High School, and looking up the hill you'll see the Women's Gym, the Chemistry and Dental Buildings, North Hall, and Kate Daum House, the new addition to Burge Hall. 
   Farther east stands East Hall, center of the Speech Pathology and Psychology Departments and the College of Education. Nearby is the Music Building from which resound the efforts of aspiring musicians. To the south of the Pentacrest lies the Communications Center, the Engineering Building, and the Library.
   At first glance, SUI's campus looks big and puzzling-the buildings may all look alike to you. Such a maze and, oh, so many people rushing past you. Then, someone smiles and you, and suddenly you realize that YOU are a part of the large, friendly SUIowan body.
