This men's dormitory constructed as part of the Public Works Administration building program in 1937 is identical in form to Shepard Hall except that it lacks the shallow end pavillions. Identifying details include a molded box cornice with modillions; the main entrance is distinguished by a frame surround with fluted pilasters, entablature, and flat denticulated cornice. Named in honor of the North Carolina governor instrumental in arranging state appropriations of $100,000 for new brick buildings.
