GAINESVILLE, Ga. - A northeast Georgia university has approved a plan that will include new residence facilities, a human anatomy laboratory and a field house.

The Times of Gainesville reports that the expansion at Brenau University in Gainesville is the result of a $62.5 million spending plan recently approved by the school's board of trustees.

Brenau President Ed Schrader said the university exceeded its goal for the first phase of a fundraising campaign by more than $500,000.
