Dates
- Existence: 1971 - Present
Historical Note
With the merger of the Wisconsin State University System and the University of Wisconsin System, completed in 1971, the name of the institution was changed to the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. A new academic building, the Richard E. Hibbard Humanities Hall, opened in 1974. In 1977, construction on a major addition to Davies Center was completed. In 1982, the Allied Health and Clinical Services Building on the north bank of the Chippewa River was completed. Construction of an addition to the Nursing Building was begun. The addition opened for occupancy in the summer of 1985. In recent years, the lower campus was transformed by the construction of the new W.R. Davies Student Center, completed in 2012; Centennial Hall, completed in late 2013 and occupied in early 2014; the renovation of Garfield Avenue along the Chippewa River on lower campus; the renovation and building of new residence halls on upper campus; and the demolition of Katharine Thomas and Putnam residence halls on lower campus in fall of 2022, to build a new Science and Health Sciences building to replace L.E. Phillips Science Hall.
