Chapman Building
In 1948, Congress appropriated funds for construction of an earthquake-proof three-story building for the fledgling Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska. Today, the building houses the Department of Mathematical Sciences, the Department of Computer Science, and classroom space and a computer lab. Sydney Chapman was a professor at the university's Geophysical Institute from 1951 until 1970. He joined a select group in the history of world science that year when a crater near the north pole of the moon was named in his honor.
