This historic black-and-white image from the University Archives captures the Industrial Education and Seed Laboratory rising up in the background, a notable campus landmark with a rich past. Built in 1900 in the elegant Italianate style, this building originally served as the Textile Building, home to a brief textile school that closed due to low enrollment by 1914. Recognizable for its distinctive twin towers and triple arches, it has since hosted various programs, including agricultural engineering and technology education. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. Do you have memories or stories connected to this historic structure?
