Buildings Named In Many Ways
...Prominent University Builders Honored Often
By Nancy Whitford
Some' 30 buildings which
have received their names
from a variety of colorful
sources now occupy the Uni
versity city campus.
Carl A. Donaldson. Univer
sity business manager, said
these names may be clssified
as functional designations,
personal memorials and war
time memorials.
"Several buildings, howev
er, are exceptions," he said.
These include Bancroft Hall
which was originally Bancroft
Grade School in the Lincoln
City school system, and the
Elgin Building which was pur
chased from the Elein Watch
Co. to replace the razed Ne-
oraska Hall.
Temple Building, which
Donaldson termed the "1912
version of the Student Union."
was once the headcmarters
for the University Cafeteria.
the YWCA and numberous
club meetings.

Financed lareelv through a
$68,000 grant given by John
D. Rockefeller, the building
project was criticized as un
democratic on the grounds
that "a state university occu
pies a position in financial
matters mat renaers it tree
from the necessity of solicit
ing money from private
sources."
Nine structures' which have
been named for functional
purposes are Teachers Col
lege, Social Sciences, Admin
istration, Coliseum, Geogra
phy Building, Architectural
Hall, Music Building, Univer
sity High and Student Union.
Memorial Stadium which
was completed in 1923, was
named in honor of those who
died in World War I. Nebras
ka rated fourth among uni
versities in student enlistment
during the war.
President Honored
The stadium, which seats
40,000, replaced a wooden
structure seating 6,000 and
was financed by contributions
from students, friends and
alumni.
Grant Memorial Hall was
completed in 1888 and named
in memory of the Civil War
general and President. Later
an addition to the building
was built in honor of the
dead.
The largest number of
buildings, though, have been
named for former faculty
members and prominent per
sons associated with the Uni
versitv.
Four named after former
chancellors are Avery Chem
istry Lab. Samuel Averv:
Burnett Hall. Edear Albert
Burnett; Andrews Hall. E
Benjamin Andrews; and Sel-
lecR quadrangle, John Sel
leek.
Four Women
Each section of the Wom
en's Residence Halls honors
a woman associated with the
University. Raymond Hall
was named for Carrie B. Ray
