The Indiana University School of Informatics and Computing’s newest building will be named Luddy Hall, thanks to an $8 million gift from former IU student Fred Luddy, the university announced Friday.

Luddy’s donation follows more than $40 million in total gifts announced to the university in less than two weeks.

The $39.8 million, 124,000-square-foot Informatics building is slated to be completed in December 2017 along Woodlawn Avenue between Cottage Grove and 11th Street.

Conrad T. Prebys also pledged $20 million to IU’s Kelley School of Business and proposed amphitheater this week.
