In 1975 the biggest room on campus was the Armory. At the
time, this former armed services drill hall was being used
as an indoor tennis court but from Dec. 8 to 19, 40 tarpaulins
capable of covering more than 20,000 square feet were laid

and chairs were brought in to create UBC’s biggest exam room.
It took 12 physical plant workmen two days to make the
