History

Construction of Seaton Hall began on the east wing in 1909 and the building gradually grew until it surrounded a sizable interior court. The east wing was constructed in 1909 for $80,000 and the south portion, facing K-State Union, was built in 1922 for $272,000 to accommodate expanding enrollment in the Division of Engineering and Architecture. The extension to the north was completed in 1959. Dr. Roy A. Seaton, for whom the building was named, was graduated from Kansas State College in 1904. His first academic appointment was assistant in Mathematics. In 1906 he transferred to the department of Mechanical Engineering and in 1920 he became Dean of the Division of Engineering and Architecture and Director of the Engineering Experiment Station.
