Haring Hall, located between Hutchison Hall and The Silo, was named for Clarence M. Haring. It is a strange and mystical place for UC Davis veterinary students. The first floor is lined with vet-med lockers and on the side class photos of the vet med and med classes gone by. Even the ugly bathrooms have lockers in them. The first floor men's room has an old and dark shower. It also houses Haring 2205, a very large lecture hall where masses of lower-division undergraduates can take their 16 series math classes or whatever those kids are doing these days. Vet Med Central Services is located in the middle of the building. On the west end of the building, you can find the Word of the Day. Just beyond it lies the lecture hall Haring 1227.
Haring Hall was built in 1949 as the veterinary medicine facility. It offered ultra-modern laboratories, operating rooms, and a clinic for large and small animals.

Haring has a awesome anti-social bench on the second floor lobby, it'd be a shame if they removed it during their renovations Renovations
Sign announcing planned renovations
