Abstract
Allen D. Stovall in July 1959, as a thesis submitted for a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree from the University of Georgia. The plan addresses the growing needs of the state-operated vocational school, which, by 1959, had expanded its curriculum and facilities over the past decade, including a two-million-dollar state investment for building and expansion. The core problem identified was the need for a more attractive and organized campus, with existing deficiencies in circulation, unity, shade, parking, and aesthetic appeal. To resolve these issues, the plan proposes new facilities such as a men's dormitory, student center, library, new administration building, and a school of building trades. It also details improvements to campus circulation through new walks and ramps, enhanced planting schemes, and optimized parking solutions. The thesis provides a comprehensive overview including a historical sketch, problem analysis, justification for the proposed solutions, detailed specifications, and a bibliography, along with lists of plates illustrating the proposed general plan, staking and grading, planting, and cost estimates.
