University's College of Engineering, of-
ficials said, plans can proceed for the
construction of the central building of
the growing new North Campus com-
plex.
ENGINEERING Dean David
lkagone, Capital CampaignNational
Chairman James Knott, and University
President Robben Fleming made the
announcement at a news conference
yesterday morning. The $20,080,572
raised through the Capital Campaign
represents the largest fund-raising goal
ever reached by any school or college in
the University.
"This campaign shows the great sup-
port you can get from industry and
from loyal alumni," said Knott, a 1938
University graduate and former vice-
president of General Motors. -
Total construction costs for the
College's move to North Campus are to
be shared with the state of Michigan,
and University officials are hoping for
an $18 million grant -60 per cent of the
projected $30 million needed. The
legislature approved planning funds for
the central facility last spring.
THE CAPITAL Campaign began in
the spring of 1974, and Ragone said the
groundbreaking for the new building
would take place within a year.
The fund-raising drive was bolstered'
by several sizable contributions from
large foundations and corporations.
Among the contributors who pledged
over $1 million are the General Motors
Corporation and the Harry and

Margaret Towsley Foundation of Ann
Arbor.
The Herbert and Grace Dow Foun-
dation of Midland made public the
largest gift to the campaign in Novem-
ber of 1975 - $4 million. Consequently,
the University's Board of Regents ap-
proved a resolution to name the new
central facility on North Campus in
honor of Dr. Herbert Dow, the founder
of the Dow Chemical Company.
THE UNIVERSITY actually began
its project of relocating the engineering
college to North Campus in 1952, and
currently four departments have been
installed there: nuclear engineering,
aerospace engineering, atmospheric
and oceanic science, and naval ar-
chitecture and marine engineering.
The Dow building will house five
departments: mechanical, civil, in-
dustrial and operations engineering,
applied mechanics and engineering
science, and humanities. In addition, it
will house the College's administrative
offices and a student center which
would be comprised of organizational
offices and study rooms.
In addition to the projected $30
million necessary to complete the move
to North Campus, an additional $8
million was allocated for endowed fun-
ds. This would be spent on six ad-
ditionalnprofessorships, and scholar-
ships and fellowships for students. It
would also provide funds for five
"engineers-in-residence" - experts

from industry released by their e
ployers to "share their expertise" wit
students and faculty.
Ragone said there were many facto
which prompted the College
Engineering to look to North Camp
for its future,, but it was the lack-o
adequate facilities on Central Campu
which really provided the main im
petus.
"THE MOTIVATION stems from th
fact that the East and Wes
Engineering buildings are over 70 year
old," said Ragone. "They're perfectl
sound for classrooms and office spac<
but they are not suited for laboratorie
any longer."
However, Ragone did admit that the
fund-raising goal reached may not b
enough to fund the re-location of all th
College's departments to North Cam
pus.
"The problem is that providing space
for the twelfth department, electrica
and computer engineering, will rn
doubt run our share of the total buildin
well over the $12 million allotted wa
back in the dear dead days of minima
inflation," Ragone said.
He said for this reason the Capita
Campaign would not be terminated
"Even though we have reached ou
original campaign goal, we will still ac
tively seek private support in comini
years."
