1977
Gannett Hall Construction Began
|
|
The School received $695,000 in state appropriations for a new journalism building, known as Gannett Hall in honor of a previous $500,000 gift by the Gannett Foundation in 1974. With the building project still just short of funding, Dean Roy Fisher gathered $200,000 in additional funds to complete the $1.4 million building. It included room for the KBIA broadcast studios, a 30-person news lab, a television lab and a 300-seat lecture hall.
