Eugene C. Eppley Administration Building

The Eugene C. Eppley Administration Building is located on the University of Nebraska at Omaha north campus in Omaha, Nebraska.

[1][2] After attending an Omaha University football game with then-college president Milo Bail in 1949, Gene Eppley was asked what the growing university needed.

Milo told him that a library was in order for their new campus, to which Eppley wrote a check for $850,000, the entire cost of the two-story structure.

[5] The overall growth of the university in the years after the building's dedication is attributed to the opening of the library, as well.
