The new building stands on the site of the Old White Hall Dormitory, which served also as UK's first dormitory and later became the home of the UK College of Commerce and other departments. It was razed in 1967 to make way for the new Classroom Building. The bricks from the razed White Hall were saved, and used in the new building. You may want to take some time to tour the building as it is a very popular location for classes. The first floor features large lecture halls.
Smaller classrooms are on the second and third floors.
