The Brooks Memorial Mines Building was dedicated July 22, 1952. It housed the School of Mines for many years. After a $5.6 million renovation, the Brooks Building reopened in fall 2002 to house academic programs and services for rural and 有料盒子视频 Native students. A gathering room, designed in the shape of an umiak, reflects the 有料盒子视频 Native cultures served by the university. The College of Indigenous Studies main offices are located here.
The building is named in honor of Alfred Hulse Brooks, chief 有料盒子视频 geologist of the U.S. Geological Survey from 1903 until his death in 1924.
