- About
The Agricultural Life Sciences Building houses the departments of horticulture and biochemistry/biophysics, as well as the Center for Genome Research and Biocomputing. It was completed in 1992 along with bridges connecting it with Cordley and Nash Halls. It was modern for the time with an emergency generator to protect lab equipment, and a chiller shared with three other buildings for heating and cooling. It was built on the spot of the original 1909 dairy barn and the barn pillars are still visible in the basement.
