Oglebay Hall, built in 1918, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is home to state-of-the-art forensic labs. It's the home of the Department of Forensic and Investigative Science and includes a DNA lab and specialized labs focusing on microscopy, forensic chemistry, latent prints, questioned documents, and trace evidence.
