Built in 1893-1894. Thompson Hall is the oldest extant building on campus, designed by noted Seattle architect, James Stephen and his Chicago trained partner, Timotheus Josenhans. Their firm was selected over 16 other entries in an architectural competition held by the Board of Regents. Thompson Hall was constructed for less than $50, 000 using local red brick made from clay deposits in back of what is now Stevens Hall. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972, and renamed Albert W. Thompson Hall on April 15th, 1972 (it was originally known simply as the Administration Building). Thompson served as Dean of Humanities in the College of Sciences and Arts. Until 1968, it served as the Administration Building as well as housing a number of other university functions.
