Completed in 2005, the Joseph F. Smith Building replaced the Smith Family Living Center. A long-range planning effort had found that facilities for the College of Humanities and the the College of Family, Home and Social Sciences were inadequate. This new building was constructed to house the displaced disciplines and to provide a new home for Humanities. This building with approximately 400 faculty offices, 40 classrooms and 20 laboratories provides facilities for the College of Humanities, School of Family Life, and the College of Family, Home and Social Sciences. It also houses the Center for Language Studies.
