The building was dedicated to Helen B. Schleman, Dean Emerita of Women. "After completing her deanship, Helen Schleman remained at Purdue, working half-time for two years as director of Span Plan, a program she conceived and launched. She designed this program to assist mature women who had left or who had never entered college to enroll with the goal of completing one or more degrees. She encouraged them to think in different terms about themselves and their potential. Through her efforts, funds were raised to provide financial assistance for those who needed it, as well as academic and personal counseling. Her dedication to Span Plan assured its success, and it continues to provide special attention to both mature women and men as they enter or return to college seeking to make lives more productive."Construction Information
