"This complex brings all of the university's science programs together under one roof, including biology, chemistry, geology, and physics. The complex houses 16 teaching labs, 30 research labs, and offices for administrators and faculty members. Specialized facilities include greenhouses; a rooftop astronomy observation deck and dome, with a new Meade 20-inch Ritchey-Cretien reflecting telescope; and a wave tank and flume in the hydrology/geology lab. The atrium houses a Foucault pendulum; a two-story, three-dimensional periodic table of the elements; an inlaid geological timeline; and a glass-etched representation of the salamander's life cycle.
