Evangel University Physical Campus

The main campus consists of 88 acres with more than 881,000 square feet of building space in 25 major buildings.

The original government grant included 70 wood-frame buildings of the former WW2 O’Reilly General Hospital. These were remodeled to serve as dormitories, classrooms, and offices. In the fall of 1963, the government approved an additional grant of 7 acres and 14 buildings. In 1972, the University purchased two additional buildings and 13.6 acres adjacent to the original campus.

Buildings include the Klaude Kendrick Library, the Robert H. Spence Chapel, and the J. Robert Ashcroft Activities Center (the gymnasium). Six permanent residence halls (Burgess, Krause, Lewis, Scott, Spence and Walther) accommodate approximately 1300 students; Noel Perkin apartments provide residence for 16 married couples. Thomas F. Zimmerman Hall opened in January 1997 and houses the departments of Business, Science and Technology and Social Sciences. The Mabee Student Activities Center, competed in 1999, serves the intramural program and individual student fitness activities. The John K. Cantrell Student Union building, completed and dedicated in 2001, includes the Barracks Coffee Shop, the Crusader Hall cafeteria, the Joust Student Union, the Wellness Center, the Bookstore, and student-related facilities including a pool table, computer carousels, and study spaces.

The C. Lawrence and Alletha M. Barnett Fine Arts Center, completed in 2002, houses the programs of Music, Theatre, and Art.  Thomas E. Trask Hall, which opened in September 2005, is home to the Communication, Theology, Education, Behavioral Sciences and Humanities departments. 

Opened in 2009, the Ralph M. Riggs Administration building houses the offices of the President and Vice Presidents, Admissions and Financial Aid, the Bursar, Records and Registration, Public Safety, the Post Office, Student Development, Institutional Advancement, and Business and Finance.
