And cut it down to leave this ending out . . . . .
Guice and wife Kathy have begun moving into the presidential on-campus home at 1500 Bulldog Drive, and Guice will this week move into the 16th floor office. Reneau moved out earlier, boxing many plaques, many memories of his time on campus, including the shadow box containing the slide rule he used as a student when he began studying engineering at Tech in the fall of 1959.
What’s in what box, he isn’t sure. But most of them are in Hale Hall in his newest on-campus office. Here he’ll handle correspondence and remain as busy as he wants as part of a higher education “think tank.” He’s worked for someone since he was 13. At age 73, he won’t completely stop now.
But his first visit to his Hale Hall office, well, don’t hold the clock on him. It won’t be too soon. When he decides to unpack and work a few hours, he won’t have to ride an elevator to the highest point in Lincoln Parish anymore. He has a first-floor office now. With an outside entrance.
Tech has already given him his own new key.
