History

Holtz Hall just north of Anderson, was erected in 1876 for $8,000 to house the Department of Chemistry. The building was officially named Holtz Hall in 1963 in honor of Dr. Adrian Augustus Holtz. Holtz began his 35 years of devoted service in 1919. Although he served the university as a freshman football coach and teacher during his long tenure at Kansas State, he is remembered by hundreds of graduates primarily for his concern for the welfare of students.
