A longtime building on the University of Wisconsin-River Falls campus has been converted into a science and technology center.
The Hagestad Hall student center, which opened in 1959, will be replaced by a new science and technology innovation center, according to a Facebook post on the University’s alumni page.
Hagestad Hall became home to career services, the Falcon Bookstore, Falcon Alley, Freddy’s Bar, Brandy’s, the Ratheskeller, the connector to the Karges Gymnasium and others.
Deconstruction of the hall will begin this summer.
The UWRF Alumni Association Facebook page encourages students, staff, and faculty to share their memories of Hagestad Hall with the goal of creating a lasting tribute to the historic building.
