Stevenson Hall is one of Sonoma State's first two buildings. It was named after former vice president of the United States Adlai Stevenson and is the university's primary academic building. It was recently renovated and houses many state-of-the-art classrooms and lecture halls, intimate study spaces, and the School of Business; the College of Education, Counseling, and Ethnic Studies; and the College of Humanities, Social Sciences, and the Arts.
