The W.E.B. DuBois Institute will achieve the first of three goals set for this year by moving into a permanent office in the basement of Canady Hall by the end of this week, its acting director said yesterday.

The three priority items for the Institute are getting adequate physical space, starting a fund-raising compaign, and finding a permanent director, Preston N. Williams, acting director and Houghton Professor of Thelogy and Contemporary Change, said last week.

The new offices of the Institute, which was founded in 1974 as a graduate research center for Afro-American studies, will consist of three rooms, ten study carrels for the graduate fellows and a basic reference library of 600 volumes.
