BuiltCompleted in the mid-1980searly 1960s (at the same time of the first major renovation to the [[Jorgensen Research Building]]), the '''Compton Engineering Building''' is the home of the ''Advanced Cybernetics, Mechanics and Electronics Program'' (ACME) on the campus of the [[United States Academy of Extranormal Studies]] at Evansville, Indiana. It was built in anticipation of the first (and to date, only) major restructuring of the metahuman programs at USAES, so that the ACME Program would have their own permanent facility dedicated to their own unique program needs.
 
Standing six stories high, the Compton Engineering Building has the dubious honor of being the furthest building from the [[USAES Old Campus]]. This is actually by design, as the well-known tendencies of magical energies to interfere with electrical transmission (and technologies that use electromagnetic energies) would cause issues with the various studies taking place there. In addition, there are various technologies (such as metallurgical studies with materials such as the various form of [[Salazarium]]) that take place within the CEB that could effect the various artifacts, permanent mystical wardings and the powers of cadets in the Mystical Enhancement Program.
It has the dubious honor of being the furthest building from the [[USAES Old Campus]]. Despite the protestations of other programs and their facilities, it is the single most damage-resistant building on the entire USAES campus. The building is built to withstand a direct multi-megaton nuclear strike, an orbital energy/concuassion blast or solar flare, nuclear-force railgun strikes, gravity inversions, submergence and pressure extremes equal to being located seven miles below an ocean surface, 10.0-plus seismic events, and sudden displacement into outer-space or other environments with toxic, not-breathable or zero atmosphere.

(This annoys their former brethren in the Mental Enhancement Program, as they like to boast that the JRC is the most damage-resistant building on the USAES campus.)
The Compton Engineering Building is six stories high.
