The pop-culture library on campus.
Popular Culture House [ edit ]
On July 21, 2012, Bowling Green State University announced their plans to demolish the Popular Culture building that housed the department.[4] [5] The Popular Culture building was home to four former presidents of the university before the Popular Culture department moved in.[5] The building was purchased by the university in 1932,[6] and was formerly called Virgil House.[7] Over 2000 supporters protested the demolition plans of the Popular Culture building.[5] [8] However the protests were unsuccessful and the university continued with plans to demolish the building.[9] The building was demolished on August 10, 2012, one week ahead of time.[5] The demolished Popular Culture house was replaced by a student health center.[10] The Popular Culture department moved into Shatzel Hall, alongside the Asian Studies department.[10]
