When the addition to Burpee Center was being planned in the late 1960s, college vice-president John Spence said there would be space for WRCR and offered the staff the opportunity to design the new studios. This is a scale model of what the staff proposed.
WRCR 3.0 model. This was the staff's concept of the studio space. What we got was close. Note the model shows double walls. We got a single wall of concrete block. We'd designed a special wall treatment for the office area modeled after the ABC News offices in Washington. That idea never happened. It's difficult to see in this view, but we'd asked for small windows, but got windows that went to the ceiling.
