Foster Auditorium is a multi-purpose facility at the University of Alabama. It was built in 1939 as a Works Progress Administration project and has been used for Alabama basketball, women's sports (in the 1970s and 1980s), graduations, lectures, concerts, and other large gatherings, including registration. Its status as the largest indoor building on campus came to an end in 1968 with the opening of the Memorial Coliseum.
The facility is named for Richard Clarke Foster, president of the University of Alabama from 1937 to 1941. The building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 2005. This recognition was granted due to the building's role as the site of Governor George Wallace's "Stand-in-the-Schoolhouse-Door" stunt where he publicly opposed actions to desegregate the university.
