The 2,800 square-foot triplex was constructed with a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and funding from OU. The apartment building rests on a 7.3 acre tract of land, adjacent to the main UOBS campus. Purchase of the 7.3 acre tract was made possible with a combination of Section 13 funds and donations. Nancy Mergler, Provost, committed Section 13 funds to cover half of the cost of the land purchase with the balance paid from donations by Carl D. and Patricia Bynum Riggs, and Kim and Nancy Hauger.
