Title

Memorial Union, 1953

Description

This 1953 winter photograph focuses on the north facade of the new northwest addition, west of the Gold Star Hall entrance, to the Memorial Union. Snow covers the ground, shrubbery and Four Seasons Fountain in the foreground. The five large arched windows in the addition repeat the shape of the window in the entrance.
Designed by Proudfoot, Rawson, and Souers, the Memorial Union was constructed in 1927-1928 by Arthur H. Neumann and Company. Built as a memorial to those who lost their lives in World War I, the original construction included the main 5 story section, Gold Star Hall, and the Great Hall. By 1938, more space was desperately needed, and the south wing was built. The addition enlarged the dance space, increased the commons area, and included a bowling alley in the basement. An extension of the south wing and addition to the southeast corner was completed in 1948. Construction on the northwest corner started 1950, and included the west terrace, chapel, and browsing library. The bookstore and Sun Room were built in 1957-1958. The northeast section was built in 1964. This involved the Campanile Room, Regency Room, and Cardinal Room on the first floor, and the Pioneer Room on the second floor, and student office spaces on the ground floor. A southeast expansion for the bookstore and food production area was completed in 1973, and two additional floors were built on the southeast wing in 1978-1979. A ground floor renovation in 1995-1996, created the present day Food Court. The Union was again renovated in 2006-2008 which included the improvement of the facade facing Lincoln Way. From its beginning in 1927, the Memorial Union was a nonprofit corporation, independent from Iowa State, and governed by a Board of Directors. In 2003, the corporation was dissolved, allowing the Memorial Union to become part of the University.

Description

This 1954 photograph shows the west side of the Memorial Union from across Lake LaVerne. Only the tallest parts of the Union are visible through the thick foliage and trees that surround the lake.

Memorial Union, 1957

Description

This 1957 photograph taken from the terrace is of the beginning excavations for what will be the bookstore and Sun Room in the Memorial Union. A workman in a skid shovel with the shovel full of dirt and raised high waits and looks towards a dump truck that is emptying its load just beyond some trees. The earth around the skid shovel is stripped bare and gouged, tangled with tree roots and shows tire tracks under the raised shovel. The wall of the terrace is in the foreground. A white construction cabin with a table and various wood and sawhorses around it is beyond the back (south) corner of the Union.

The name of the department changed to the Department of Dairy Industry in 1928, then to the Department of Dairy and Food Industry in 1957. In 1961, it became the Department of Dairy and Food Industries and in 1969, the name and curriculum were changed to the Department of Food Technology. In 1990, the department merged with the Department of Food and Nutrition to form the Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition.
