, at the
cost
of
$3
million
dollars

money
was
donated
by
Mrs

gift
, the
entire
facility
was
named
Donald
Core
Tangeman
,

killed
in
action
during
World
War
II
.
Starting
in
2001
, the
facility

,
during
which
time
, the
south
wing
and
bridge
were
leveled
to
make
way
for a
new
south
wing
, and the
north
wing
completely
renovated
. The
south
wing
reopened
in
2003
and the

tower
rises
through
a
glass
roof
,
supported
by
90
feet
of
web-like
structural
pieces
. The
new
building
remains
a
center
of the
student
communities
activities
, with a
food
hall
, the
Catskeller
game
room
, a
200
seat
movie
theater
, and
breakout
rooms
.
University
of
Cincinnati
In
1819
,
Cincinnati
College
and the
Medical
College
of
Ohio
were
founded
in
Cincinnati
.
Local
benefactors
such
as
Dr
.
Daniel
Drake
and
William
Lytle
of the
Lytle
family
suggested
and
funded
these
institutions
. In
1870
, the
estate
of
Charles
McMicken
willed
funds
to the
City
of
Cincinnati
to
establish
the
University
of
Cincinnati
,
absorbing
Cincinnati
College
.
While
the
Medical
College
of
Ohio
was
loosely
affiliated
with
UC
from
about
1896
,
it
joined
with a
splinter
medical
school
,
Miami
Medical
College
, to
form
the
Ohio-Miami
Medical
Department
of the
University
of
Cincinnati
in
1909
.
UC
would
again
add
another
independent
organization
to its
roster
of
colleges
when
it
absorbed
the
Cincinnati
College-Conservatory
of
Music
in
1962
.
UC
became
a "
municipally-sponsored
,
state-affiliated
"
institution
in
1968
.
During
this
time
,
UC
was the
second-oldest
and
second-largest
municipal
university
in the
country
.
It
became
one
of
Ohio's
state
universities
in
1977
.
