  • University of Alaska Museum (Alison K. Hoagland)

There are two buildings in the collection at the west end of campus that are of particular interest, the Butrovich Building and the University of Alaska Museum. The museum is a stark white assemblage of geometric shapes. Well composed, it sits comfortably on its hillside, overlooking the valley below.
