Robb, George Building Design Building Plans College Planning Decentralization Design Requirements Dormitories Facility Improvement Library Networks Space Utilization Student Participation This paper, in making several proposals for improving university design to meet the needs of students, urges that students be given a greater role in planning physical facilities. The following proposals are made: (1) No rigid line of demarcation should be drawn between living and working facilities; (2) the design should provide for a maximum number of students, teachers, and staff to live within the university complex; (3) budgeted money should be expended in construction of self-contained apartments rather than in the building of halls, common rooms, or large central libraries; (4) the university should merge with its urban environment and represent an "urban solution to an urban problem"; and (5) academic space should never be assigned permanently to any one discipline.
