History

Umberger Hall was designed in 1956 by the Campus Planning Department of Kansas State University, directed by Vincent Cool, for University Extension at a cost of $695,000. It contains offices for the Director of Extension and numerous extension programs, a library for extension publications, meeting rooms and a 450 seat auditorium. The building was named in honor of Harry J.C. Umberger who joined the Department of Agronomy in 1911. Dr. Umberger was county agent leader from 1917 to 1919 and at that time he was appointed Dean of the Division of College Extension.
