History.
The cornerstone for the building was installed in 1959 and the building cost was $1.74 million. Construction was completed by general contractors Ellis-Don Ltd. The building was opened in the fall of 1960. The Department of History was the first faculty housed in the building at this time.
The large clock tower houses five 8-foot diameter bells that each weigh 400lbs which are tuned to E, B, E, F and G#. The bells were manufactured by Gillett and Johnston. First installed with the clock faces in 1960, the bells were decommissioned in 2007 due to high refurbishment costs.
