Ball State University to demolish residence hall complex
The university's director of housing and residence life, Alan Hargrave, says the nine-story-tall complex opened in 1967 during the nationwide expansion in higher education to accommodate baby boomers.
During a commencement speech in 2015, Ball State graduate and Papa John's Pizza founder John Schnatter, recalled that he came up with the specifications, recipes, demographics, equipment and business plan for the company when he was living on the fifth floor of LaFollette in 1982.
