Classes officially began on the Edwardsville campus at 8:00 A.M. on Thursday, September 23, 1965. The parking lots had not been completed, so students parked their cars wherever they could and walked the rest of the way to class. The original master plan intended that the parking areas should be situated at a distance from the buildings. Faculty and staff complaints ultimately led to a violation of that original vision.
