Description
<strong>Exhibit labels:</strong><br /><br />[1] Nitschke Hall dedication (1995). Construction began in 1994 on what was originally referred to as the East Engineering Building, a steel and glass structure that stands as one of four buildings that make up the Engineering complex. It is named after Norman Nitschke, a research and development engineer in glass technology. <br /><br />[2] Frank E. and Nancy Horton International House (1995, 1998). Originally dedicated as International House in 1995, the residence hall was constructed specifically for the use of international students, who had input into its seven-level, V-shape design. At the time of its opening, its 88 suites housed 300 American and 100 international students. It was rededicated in honor of President Frank Horton and his wife Nancy in 1998. <br /><br />[3] Dedication of Wolfe Hall (1998). Wolfe Hall became the new home for the College of Pharmacy and expanded facilities for chemistry and life sciences in 1998. The complex was made possible in large part due to a family pledge from Frederic and Mary Wolfe of $1.5 million, which enable the University to meet a 10-1 match by the State of Ohio that challenged UToledo to raise $3 million of the total $33 million building cost. <br /><br />[4] Centennial Mall named one of the most beautiful landscaped spots in America (1999). Centennial Mall was one of 362 sites across America to receive this award by the American Society of Landscape Architects. <br /><br />[5] The College of Health and Human Services (HHS) held its first classes in the fall of 1999. Dr. Jerome Sullivan served as interim dean, as he did for UToledo's Community and Technical College (ComTech). Several of ComTech's programs were absorbed by HHS. As a result, ComTech, which was experiencing declining enrollment, was abolished.
