1961
New Columbia Missourian Headquarters Built
|
|
The School finished an addition to Jay H. Neff Hall, now called Neff Annex, to house the Columbia Missourian. The addition included 19,000 feet of floor space, a newsroom, composing room and press room. The School dedicated the building in May 1962 with an address by Basil L. Walters, president of Newspaper Research Associates.
Construction of the addition began in 1959 (top left). The new building contained a modern newsroom (sketch, mid-left) and required moving the printing press (top and mid-right) and transforming the old newsroom into a student lounge (mid-right). Basil L. Walters gave the dedication address (bottom left), along with other platform guests (bottom, center). A Missourian supplement documented the occasion (bottom right).
