[[Image:Greg Jarvis Shuttle Challenger.JPG|thumb|right|Memorial at Hermosa Beach]]The East Engineering building on [[University at Buffalo, The State University of New York|University at Buffalo]] ([[State University of New York|SUNY]]) north campus was renamed Jarvis Hall after Jarvis' death. In Spring 1986, when the university had not yet named the building in his memory, four students scaled the building and nailed a sign with the name "Jarvis Hall" onto the side of the building as a show of support for the deceased astronaut. The four students were Keith “Vedge” Tannenbaum, Space Mann, Little Jeffrey Brenner and Joseph “Sneetch” Kuperberg. The students purchased plywood and stencils at a local store and then painted the sign before going out late at night to attach it to the building. In 1987, the name was made official with a dedication ceremony. Jarvis Hall is devoted largely to [[Aerospace Engineering]] and engineering support services.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Jarvis Hall |url=http://www.buffalo.edu/buildings/building?id=jarvis |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090309123334/http://www.buffalo.edu/buildings/building?id=jarvis |archive-date=March 9, 2009 |access-date=November 13, 2003 |website=www.buffalo.edu}}</ref>
