Honoring Prominent Figures in Campus History: The Legacy of Hodson Hall

02/27/2024

Most campus buildings bear the names of prominent donors or institutional figures. Every day, students eat at Hodson Hall Commons, the more recent annex to Hodson Hall and the Hynson Lounge. The name Hodson has been heard more recently due to the settlement of the Hodson Trust and the scholarship opportunities it will afford students.

Then and Now - Middle Hall

12/01/2023

The Hill Dorms are some of the oldest buildings on campus. Serving as dormitories, a frat house, and classrooms, they stand high on the hill as some of the most recognizable images of the campus. Here are some upperclassmen in 1926 who are doing their best intellectual posing on the steps of Middle Hall. Notice the score on the door: this was in the prime of hazing, pitting the sophomore class against the 鈥渞ats鈥 or freshmen. What role will the hill dorms play as the college moves into the future?
