McAllister Building is the home of the Department of Mathematics at Penn State. Located right next to the HUB-Robeson Center on Pollock Road, the building was constructed in 1904 as a men's dormitory. In 1915 it became a women's dormitory, and later was converted to an academic building. In addition to the Math Department, the McAllister Building also houses the University Park branch of the U.S. Post Office. In 2005 the building was re-dedicated after extensive renovations.
