- The Colorado State University Department of History hosted a virtual exhibition on the Andrew G. Clark Building on Dec. 3, via Zoom.
Graduate students enrolled in HIST 540: Material Culture presented a program entitled “For the Love of Clark: A Virtual Exhibition.” They discussed the merits and faults of the Andrew G. Clark Building from the perspective of its material culture - materials, objects, art and all the other tangible things that make Clark both a building and an experience. Topics included movement and accessibility, architectural style, landscaping and lighting. Students also discussed Clark’s role in the historic memory of Colorado State University, including the reasons for the building’s layout and its unusual architectural style.
Formerly known as the Social Sciences Building, the Clark Building is home to CSU’s College of the Liberal Arts. It was originally completed in 1968 and was recently remodeled in 2010. The College of Liberal Arts is currently seeking to substantially renovate the aging building.

I really enjoyed this presentation. Well done.
Thanks for making this available! It was an informative presentation on a building in which I spent a lot of time as a student. I also maintain that Clark's layout was designed to confuse the Soviets in the event of a Red Dawn-like invasion of the U.S.
Hahahha!!! Very funny!!! This building is the prettiest ugly structure ever built. This is classic "bastard Bauhaus."
