Opened in August 1968, the Fleming Administratioo Building replaced what is now the LSA Building as the office of the University's top admin- istrators and officials. And while protests on campus have a history of targeting some of the University's top lead- ers, including the University's ninth president Robben Flem- ing, for whom the building is named, the building was not built to be "riot proof." Both the timeline for the building's construction and the building's blueprints and design plans indicate that there are other reasons for the building's eye-catching fagade. Although the University's most notable protests began in the late 1960s, with the Flem- ing building bid out in 1966 and completed in 1969, the building's design was actually conceptualized in the early 1960s long before the campus protests. But for many, the build- log's design, with its unique- ly-placed, primarily long and narrow windows, still suggests that the building's designer may have planned to make the building as secure as possible. However, in the plans he presented to the University's Board of Regents, architect Alden B. Dow, famous for his cutting-edge designs, intended to meet specifications of Uni- versity leaders while preserv- log the aesthetic appeal for which he was known. to a 2007 interview with The Michigan Daily, Julia Truettner, then a campus planning project manager, said the rumors about the build- log's riot-proof design greatly offended Dow, who designed the building in his signature "composed order" design style. Treuttner said the narrow window design was also meant to make the building more energy efficient than its pre- decessor - the LSA Admin- istration Building, which has large windows that overheated the then-non-air conditioned building in the summer and left the building drafty during cold winters. - KYLE SWANSON CONTACT INFORMATIOI Newsrosm News Tips torrections Letters to the Editor PhotographytDepartment Arts Section Editorial Pate Spurts Section Bisplay Sales tlassitied Sales Online Sales Finance OfficehoursSu.-Thus.11a.m. - 2 .n, 730-410-4110 oet.3 news@michigandaily.com' corrections@michigandaily.com tothedaiy@michigandaily.corx pho'.0roichigandaily.com artspage@michigandaily.com opinion@mich~igandaily.com sportso@ichigandaily.cornl display@michigandaily.com classified@moichigasdily.coni finance@michigndaily.com I0 CRIME NOTES Sofa seats stolen Unlocked vehicle CAMPUS EVENTS & NOTES Spectrum Ctr.
