Other Building Information	An anonymous donor contributed half of the monies needed to build the Alumni Memorial Union, which contained twice the space of its predecessor, the Brooks Memorial Union.

Connecting the main union building to the Weasler Auditorium is a cloister-like covered walkway. In 2007 the Brooks Mosaic, which had been in storage since 2001 when Brooks Memorial Union was razed, was installed on the north wall of the second floor of the Alumni Memorial Union.
