Constructed 1937

Designed by John Gaw Meem and constructed by the WPA, Rogers Hall was completed in 1937 in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. The walls of the main staircase and the second floor foyer are covered with a mural, “The Dissemination of Education in New Mexico,” completed in 1937 under WPA/FAP by Lloyd Moylan. Originally built as a library, Rogers Hall now serves as the administration building of New Mexico Highland University. — Source “Public Art and Architecture in New Mexico 1933-1943” by Kathryn A.
