" n in...- oi activities and rvtccsfronn 1941 to 1951 recounts how the Mini Union durJ i ng its first ten years, has profound!) influenced tin- life oi th( I niversity immunity. In addition to providing many opportunities for recreational, social, and ultural experiences to the students and staff, the lllini Union has also served the ahmmi and friends of the University, and on many occasions, the people of the state at large. We are grateful to those who gave so generously of their time and efforts, and to those who provided for the furnishings and equipment of the building, for having brought to the University an asset of such value and distinction. The lllini Union has fulfilled many needs of the i He community. However, with enrollment considerably higher than at the time the building was planned, almost every facility is overtaxed. Each year has seen an increase in activity within the building. With every indication that University enrollments will continue at a high level over the long term, there will be need for expansion. Although this may not be possible in the near future, consideration is being given to an addition to present facilities which will permit an increased sphere of activities and service. In the meantime, the lllini Union will continue to serve Ihl ,,M the University community to the fullest extent of its available facilities. rill ELLIN! UNION BOARD the dii y the PCMI f a\ •
