CAMPBELL HALL for Public Telecommunication S ix years ago, alumni Alice and Robert Campbell of Los Angeles announced their decision to provide a $5 million gift and their resolute inspiration toward a new workplace for the University of lilinois's public broadcasting stations. Today, Campbell Hall for Public Telecommunication is a stunning example of architecture for the public good. For the first time in its 77-year history, WILL has a permanent home for its radio and television stations. Previously, the College of Communications' Division of Broadcasting offices and WILL AM-FMTV had been scattered across Champaign-Urbana: in a former classroom, an old bakery, an 80-year-old rooming house, a former graininspection station, a mobile home, and several former residential homes. "When we learned that WILL was operating out often different locations," Robert Campbell said, "we knew we had found a need that was begging to be filled. Alice and I have known for some time that WILL was an important part of the life of the people living in central Illinois, and also of the University of Illinois. We feel very fortunate . . . to help fill that need." Robert Campbell received a bachelor's degree from the College of Commerce and Business
