University Hall, Gothic Revival university building in Evanston, United States
University Hall rises from Northwestern University campus with limestone walls and a clock tower that marks the passage of academic hours.
The construction of University Hall in 1869 established it as the first permanent structure on Northwestern University's expanding Evanston campus.
The English department at University Hall maintains traditions of academic excellence through literature studies and language instruction programs.
Multiple classrooms within University Hall feature modern educational technology, including digital projectors, power outlets, and flexible seating arrangements.
The hall preserves an original 'Old College' sign from Northwestern's first building, which was demolished in 1973 after serving the institution for 118 years.
