01 / The story of this place

Make time for these

Fisher 135 seats 476. Fisher Hall went up in 1962, is named for James Fisher, former head of the physics department, and houses the Departments of Physics and Mathematical Sciences. Lots of first-year students have classes in the building, and most weekends room 135 turns into the campus movie theater. The Michigan Tech Film Board shows recent movies at a low price, open to students, staff, faculty and community members.
