With support from a $1.3 million grant from the Federal Emergency Management Authority (FEMA), dignitaries broke ground on the West Plains campus of Missouri State University for a new multipurpose Student Recreation Center and emergency shelter. The remaining $900,000 required for the construction of the 10,000-square-foot facility is coming from a $25 increase in student fees, which the student body recently approved by a three-to-one margin. Aside from providing a tornado shelter for students, staff and anyone else within a five mile radius, the recreation center will feature a gymnasium for basketball and volleyball, as well as a racquetball court. The facility, designed by Dake Wells Architecture of Springfield, Mo., is expected to be completed this fall.
