This report considers Problems andsolutions related to the design and establishment ofcollege health facilities. This includes the results of a

study involving Colorado, Knox, and Wittenberg Colleges in

which personal visits and expert testimony concluded that

the health services of small colleges in the central and

western states were seriously inadequate- A Prototypesolution was developed by an architectural firm to meet the

needs of span independent liberal arts colleges. Specificconsiderations included--(1) internal expansion and

flexibility, (2) study and recreational facilities, and (3)

supervision and space relationships. This solutionconsisted of a circular building with patient rocms on the

perimeter and a raised central nursing station, withauxiliary waiting and treatment rooms and an attached

nurses residence. An important feature was the provision of

study space which could be replaced with emergency beds.The Prototype is intended as a low cost combination clinic

and infirmary. Specifications, layouts, and elevations are

given with the supporting design analysis. This document
