Henry Kofler Building

The Henry Koffler Building 
was built in 1992, and is one of the campus' newest classroom buildings. The 25-Scientists Sculpture on the north side of CBS is a 'gateway narrative' to the Chemistry/Biology area. The theme is a visual representation of the studies and activities found in the programs of chemistry and biology. Some of the representations are identifiable as UA faculty members, notably Dr. Donald Huffman holding the 'Bucky Ball', a discovery of carbon molecules in the exact shape of a soccer ball.
Some of others say that this is the representations of UA wildcats because of its shape. There are two triangles above the building which looks like cat's ear. The arc of the gate of it looks like a cat's shutting mouth. When step aside from the building, a visible and clear cat's face can be identified.
