Abstract
Florida Atlantic University is a new upper-division and graduate
state university on the southeast coast of Florida, at Boca Raton.
It occupies a former government air field of some 1200 acres. The
first phase buildings were occupied last summer, the second phase
buildings are under construction, and the third phase are in the final
planning stage. The first phase library occupies three floors of a
five story building, the second phase will occupy the whole five floors,
and the third phase (first addition) will double the five floor space.
The Computer Center, with its IBM 1460 computer, is in the library
building during Phase I only. The IBM 360 system has a delivery
date of July 1966, the occupancy date for Phase II. The University
now has 1187 students. This number is to grow to 10,000 by 1970.
