History

Planning and Construction

In April 1977, the Board of Trustees voted to construct a $6 million communications building to be located at the southwest corner of Patterson Avenue and Route 73. During construction, the building at that time was called the Communications Building.

Post-opening

On November 4, 1979, Miami University held a dedication ceremony for Joseph M. Bachelor. The new communications building would be called Bachelor Hall in his honor and contributions to Miami. Students, staff and faculty came to the ceremony.

Complications

After Bachelor Hall was built in 1978, the university had to address some issues about traffic and pedestrian crossing. Bachelor Hall could alter traffic patterns. The university and the City of Oxford approved of two pedestrian cross walks at the intersection of Patterson Avenue and Spring Street. At the same time, they approved pedestrian traffic controllers to regulate traffic signals at the intersections.
