"LaKretz Hall offers auditorium and classroom facilities for life-sciences departments. The building includes a 350-seat auditorium, seminar breakout rooms, a 50-seat distance-learning classroom, and offices for the Institute of the Environment. The building sits on top of a five-million-gallon tank in which the university stores chilled water that it produces when electric rates are low and uses for air-conditioning when rates are high.
