When Did Our Professors Become Buildings?

L.E. Phillips Science Hall, 1964, 1967

L.E. Phillips

In November 1963, L.E. Phillips, Eau Claire industrialist and philanthropist, donated $250,000 to equip the new science hall under construction on campus at that time. The name, L.E. Phillips Science Hall, was immediately attached to the building, which was completed in 1964 and dedicated on October 19, 1965.

An addition, which doubled the space of the original building, opened in the fall of 1969.
