The Edward B. Lindaman Center was housed in the former Whitworth College Music Building, built during WWII. The building’s renovation was made possible by a grant of $600,000 from the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust in 1980.

Offices of the social science division occupy the lower floor. The upper floor was devoted to seminars and conferences. The Center was dedicated on October 23, 1981.
