Originally known as North Hall, the building was named in 1948 for Elizabeth W. Hamilton. Ms. Hamilton was a graduate of Oxford College with two degrees in 1895. Miss Hamilton taught Greek and English and was Dean of Oxford College. She joined Miami University in 1905 as Dean of Women and served in that capacity until her retirement in 1945. The building was the first women’s dormitory in which sorority suites were included, initially on an experimental basis.
