FACILITIES
The University is located at Cedar and Shaw Avenues in the northeast section of the City
of Fresno. Its 1410 acres provide for the expansion of facilities necessitated by a continually
increasing enrollment. When the Shaw Avenue location was first occupied, during the
1953-54 academic year, there were only four completed buildings on what was then an
880-acre site. Ten years later, in 1963-04, major buildings on campus included administration,
agricultural classroom, agricultural mechanics, home economics, bookstore, business,
cafeteria, education-psychology, engineering, home management cottage, industrial arts,
library, gymnasiums for men and women, music scie.nce, social science, speech arts, student
health service and the first residence halls. Between 1964 and the fall of 1971, student
administration, residence hall commons, classroom, and office buildings, a three-story coUege
union, new bookstore, and a new art building of contemporary design were constructed.
There are now more'than 45 buildings in service. Completed during 1975-76 is a $7,368,000
additional science building. Future plans include an addition to the library.
The buildings are in a setting of colorful trees, shrubbery, flowers, and lawns. A tree-lined
amphitheater accommodates commencements, convocations, and other large assemblages
and provides an outdoor setting for numerous programs and gatherings during the year. A
centraUy located memorial court, benches, and fountain are favorite spots for relaxation. The
adjacent free speech area and college union are centers of student life and activity.
A farm operated by the School of Agricultural Sciences includes more than 34 structures
and is considered one of the most modern and best equipped agricultural plants in the west.
CENTER FOR INFORMATION PROCESSING
The Center is organized to serve all information processing and computation needs of the
university including instruction, research, and administration. It provides a variety of direct
and indirect free services to students. Consultants are available in the Instructional
Laboratories to give assistance in the use of facilities and computer programming and the
laboratories provide timesharing terminals, keypunches, and sorters for students.
Approximately 25% of the students now make substantial use of the facilities. Use of the
computers in the instructional program is increasing at a rapid rate. The Center is located
in the west wing of the School of Business Building with offices in San Ramon 4. The principal
hardware, a CDC 3150, supports most of the major computer languages and, via a
teleprocessing circuit, has access to other larger computers and to a statewide interactive
timesharing network. A DEC PDP 11 /45 Timesharing Computer also provides substantial
support to instructional programs.
