This building, located in the central U.C. Berkeley Campus, is one of the original group of classically-inspired Beaux Arts buildings designed by Howard as part of his campus plan. Other buildings from this plan include Doe Library and the Greek Theater.
It is occasionally the site for protests as campus administration offices are housed here.
