Historia
School of Agriculture Building > Kirk Hall
The School of Agriculture Building was one of the three structures built between 1948 and 1949 that made up what was called the “Agriculture group” of buildings. Along with the Virus Laboratory and the Soils and Dairy Laboratories, the School of Agriculture was a flat-roofed yellow brick structure. The three-storey building, designed by Portnall & Stock and built at a cost of $600,000, contained enough bedrooms for every student in the school, common rooms, an auditorium, and a cafeteria. The building was renamed in 1962 for Dr. L. E. Kirk, former Dean of Agriculture, who is best known for his pioneering efforts in forage crop breeding and genetics. The School of Agriculture moved into the College of Agriculture Building in 1991. Kirk Hall is presently home to the offices of Vice-President Research, Extension Division and University Advancement.
