Added in 1989, the Student Recreation Center became an integral part of MU athletics. The addition marked the 100th anniversary of the oldest structure in the athletic complex--Rothwell Gymnasium.

The Women's Gym began small and simple, as one can see in this photo. Later, in 1922, the University constructed McKee Gymnasium. McKee was also women-specific, but gave them many more amenities in the gymnasium.

Previously, Mizzou Basketball played at the Hearnes Center. In 2003, construction began for a new arena. Mizzou Arena can be also known as Paige Sports Arena.

Presented in the 1918 Savitar, this is one of the first pictures of the library. Originally, books were kept in the Academic Hall; however, as time went on, the University needed a new building to house the rising number of documents. Thus, the University began construction in 1913.

A sketch of the 1958 addition to the library. With the addition the University planned to have around a million volumes and facilities for two million. At this time, the library included a first floor undergraduate library for freshmen and sophomores, 100 private study rooms, 1000 lockers for graduates, 40 seminar rooms, and an open reading space. Fall of 1961 marked the completion of this large addition.

The opening of Brewer Fieldhouse allowed runners to practice regardless of weather. Different teams--track, football, basketball--shared the Field House according to the seasons of the year. With the addition of the field house, the track team season started at the end of the football season, continuing to the end of school. In years before, however, all the athletes could do before warm weather was maintain their condition. The extra practice was a deciding factor in many meets.

In 1929, Brewer was one of the finest facilities in the Midwest and the Big Six conference. But the building grew old and was replaced by the $10.5 million Hearnes Center. In the late 60's, upon construction of the Hearnes Complex, Brewer Fieldhouse ceased in activity significantly. The basketball team no longer played on Fieldhouse's wooden court, switching to Hearne's tartan floor in 1972. But rather than tear Brewer-Fieldhouse down, funds were dedicated to it. New courts, tracks, and locker rooms were planned. Brewer-Fieldhouse would reopen in 1975.
