Sullivan-Harrell
Hall
Sullivan-Harrell Hall houses the geology department
and labs, faculty offices for education
and physics, and the
psychology, sociology and anthropology,
mathematics and computer science
departments. Originally dedicated on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 29,
1929, the building is named after two former science professors,
G.L. Harrell and J.M. Sullivan, who were primarily responsible for
the design of the building. In 1990, Sullivan-Harrell Hall was entirely
renovated and now contains 28 faculty offices, 14 classrooms and
seminar rooms, and 10 laboratories. Specialized labs include a high
temperature room, an electron microscope room, an X-ray diffraction
and emission room, an optics/laser laboratory, and a nuclear laboratory.
In addition to these features, the building also houses commons
areas and computer labs for student use.
