How many students of the University know the history of the buildings in which they daily attend classes? How much the building re获其名？
There are twenty-three buildings belonging to the University, twenty of them in Lawrence and three at Rosedale. Six of these were erected by private gift and the others appropriations of the state legislature.
The first building was erected on North College on what is now often called "Rock Chalk" hill, in 1868, on a site chosen by Amos A. Lawrence from whom the museum was built. This building was erected "to perpetuate the memory of the martyrs who fell in the early struggles of Kansas." In 1917 the building was torn down after being called unafraid for occupancy and was called North College after the erection in 1872 of Fraser Hall.
Fraser Hall is at present the oldest building on the campus and was named in honor of General John Fraser, the first active chancellor of the University. It cost approximately $182,000, one-third the city of Lawrence and the other half was appropriated by the state legislature.
The next building - was erected twelve years later and is now the Journalism Building. For a number of years it was called the Medical Building and contained the department of medicine.
In 1866 Snow Hall was built and later named for Professor Francis Huntington Snow, the first professor of chemistry at the University, and later Chancellor.
B. Spooner, a merchant and philanthropist of Boston, Mass., Spooner Library and the Chancellor's residence were erected in 1894.

The next year Blake Hall was built to house the departments of physics and astronomy and named in honor of the late Dr. Joseph W. McCormick of the department of physics and who designed the building. The plans were changed somewhat by the state architect but care was taken that no iron work would be in construction for the first story.
Fower Shops was finished in 1899 from a bequest by George A. Flower, of Kansas City, Mo., in honor Samuel, George Fowler, or Liverpool, England.
The Dyche Museum of Natural History was finished in 1902 and named for Prof. Lewis L. Davidson in 1833 till 1906 when he was given leave of absence to become state fish and game warden and work his plan for stocking the rivers and creeks of Kansas from a state fish hatchery.
Green Hall was erected in 1905 and named in honor of Dean James Wood Green, for more than forty years the active head of the Kansan State Fish and Game department many years President of the Athletic Association and perhaps the greatest figure in the athletic circles of the University. His birthday is the date of the annual Law School Banquet and the day following is a holiday at that School. Robinson Gymnastics was named in honor of Governor Calvin Bain, the first governor of Kansas, and Sara T. D. Robinson. Marvin Hall, the engineering building, was created in 1907 and named in honor of Frank O. Marvin, the first dean of that school.
Haworth Hall was named in honor of Prof. Erasmus Haworth, many years head of the department of geology and State Geological Survey.
The other buildings on the campus are the Chemistry Building, Oread Training School, a gift to the University, Astronomy building, service building, power plant and Mechanical laboratory, and the Vivarium.
The other buildings are located at Rosedale and constitute the Eleanor Taylor Bell Memorial Hospital. This was erected from funds given to the state by Dr. Simon R. Bell of Rosedale and named as a memorial to his wife.
