Smith Hall opened in August 2013 as a co-ed residence for mostly first-year students. Smith Hall was named in recognition of a 2012 gift to the University from Herbert E. Smith Sr., C’1903, his wife Lucy, and their son, Herbert E. Smith Jr., C’36, and his wife, Elizabeth “Bibby” Smith. It is built with many local, re-purposed, and renewable resources and is LEED Silver equivalent.
