Note: The Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell, b. Nov. 13, 1831, d. Nov. 5, 1879, did revolutionary work in electromagnetism and the kinetic theory of gases (http://www.phy.hr/~dpaar/fizicari/xmaxwell.html). This project included the construction of a complex of four major science buildings: the construction of a new Museum of Natural History and two smaller architecture studio buildings to replace dislocated facilities, and a remodel of a former science building for Architecture and Allied Arts, which lost about 15,000 net square feet of programmatic space to construction of the new science buildings. The project was completed between 1989-1991. <br><br> An interactive campus map of the University of Oregon may be viewed at: http://map.uoregon.edu/ Willamete Hall, facade
