Historical Information

36 dormitory buildings were built in 1957 and were originally called the Single Student Dormitory Courts and Gable Courts. They served as a men's residence hall and accommodated 660 male students. Each of the 6 courts contained six buildings with a centrally located cafeteria and office building. They were renamed the Oliver P. Terry Courts in 1965 and were all demolished in 1995.
