In that first year, 14 faculty members instructed 88 students. Since then, the school has undergone five name changes and has been housed in five locations.[citation needed] Today, the Carlson School has nearly 5,000 students, 50,000 alumni, six degree programs, 106 tenure-track and 28 full-time instructional faculty members.

Campus
The Carlson School of Management’s two facilities, the Curtis L. Carlson School of Management and Herbert M. Hanson, Jr. Hall are located on the University of Minnesota’s West Bank, west of the Mississippi River.
Curtis L. Carlson School of Management
The Carlson School is housed in a 243,000-square-foot (22,600 m2), five-story building that was dedicated in 1998. The building encompasses 33 classrooms, 35 meeting rooms, a 180-seat lecture hall, and a 250-seat auditorium. The facility is equipped with wireless internet access, experiential learning laboratories, teleconferencing and video interview capabilities. It is also home to a dining center located in the basement level of the building. The facility is currently undergoing renovations.
Herbert M. Hanson, Jr. Hall
Opened on September 25, 2008, Hanson Hall is connected to the Carlson School by the Robert Sparboe skyway. As part of a $40 million expansion project, Herbert M. Hanson, Jr. Hall nearly doubled the size of the business school, and provided a state-of-the-art home for the Carlson School Undergraduate program. Hanson Hall covers 124,000 square feet (11,500 m2), is four-stories tall, and is outfitted with nine classrooms with wireless Internet access and state-of-the-art presentation technology. The facility also features 22 interview rooms, 10 breakout rooms, a collaborative learning lab, a recruiter lounge, a meeting room for information sessions and presentations by the corporate community, offices for undergraduate advising, undergraduate career placement, offices for the Department of Economics in the College of Liberal Arts, and a Starbucks. The building is named after the generous benefactors, Herb ’49 B.A. and Bar Hanson, who kicked off the building campaign with a $10 million pledge in 2004. In spring 2006, the Minnesota State Legislature granted $26.6 million in funding to the Carlson School as part of the University of Minnesota’s Capital Campaign request.[citation needed]
