Construction on the permanent campus of the Rand Afrikaans University, Auckland Park has already begun in 1969. The construction program was taking a step further on 8 March 1971, when the university signed a contract with Messrs. Stocks and Stocks for building a further portion of the total building complex, which will consist of the Central lecturing buildings, Library, and University Club. The total construction cost of buildings included in this contract, will be estimated to approximately R17 million, and it was expressed that the University Club must be completed at the end of 1973. Because of the scope of work and the limited time available for its execution, a negotiated contract has been incurred with Messrs. Stocks and Stocks so that building can commence even before completion of all working drawings.
