The James McCune Smith Learning Hub, Glasgow University.

Opened in April 2021, this building is named after the first African American known to have been awarded a medical degree. He got his degree from Glasgow University in 1837 having travelled to study in Scotland because he was denied admission to the medical schools he applied to in the US.
