- Title
- Inter American University, San Germán, Puerto Rico.
- Description
- Faculty and students of the Inter American University in San Germán began construction of the new student center shoveling cement to the Calypso Beat of the University Steel Band composed of students from the Virgin Islands. The new student center will be built entirely by student and faculty donated labor. A new idea in donations, this project was conceived by students to meet the needs of the rapidly expanding university. The Pan American Students Club joined in the foundation laying ceremony by presenting a cash donation to be used for material. The proceeds from a Valentine's Day dance were the source of the donation. President Ronald C. Bauer officially began the project by placing the first shovel of concrete into the foundation.
