Mathematics Hall
Mathematics Hall was dubbed "Liberated Zone No. 5" by students who occupied it during the 1968 protests

Home of the Mathematics Department. Formerly housed the School of Engineering, which decamped for more spacious quarters when Mudd was built in 1959. Unfortunately, nobody wanted to give the millions of dollars necessary to rename it.

On the Broadway side, a plaque on the building commemorates the Revolutionary War Battle of Harlem Heights, which was fought in the area.
