The Learning Resource Center (Library) building is completed and described as "a joint project with Stark Technical College." 70% of the bones (12,000 years old) of a Mastodon appear on campus. The Mastodon Restoration Committee is hoping to get assistance with students to raise the funds needed (approximately $10,000) as well as helping with putting the Mastodon together.
