The building will not have a
typical structure. Each part is
dependent upon another in con-
struction; therefore if one part is
begun late the next part may also
be started later said Taylor.
In its finished state the

Progress is being made in the
construction of the Jack and
Adele Frost Center for the Visual
Arts.
Although it may appear that
little progress is being make or
that construction is far behind
schedule Ira Taylor head of the
art department said that con-
struction is not far behind
enough to cause concern.
The building should still be
finished in time to accomodate
class in Fall 1986 which was the
original goal Taylor explained.
"Any building in this stage looks
very slow" he said. The founda-
tion of a building must be very
accurately and carefully built
because the rest of the building
depends on it."
Taylor also explained that the
construction may be approx-
imately three weeks behind
