East Tennessee > UT Closing Strong Hall Dorm
Knoxville News-Sentinel - Last day of use as a women's dorm is at hand for historic UT building:
After 83 years, one of Cumberland Avenue's most beloved buildings - the University of Tennessee's Sophronia Strong Hall - has bid farewell to all of its women.
With the end of spring semester, the last students moved out Wednesday, marking the last day as a women's dormitory for the landmark structure at the northwest corner of 16th Street.
Plans are to renovate and convert the building into instructional and laboratory space for the Department of Anthropology, which now uses part of Neyland Stadium.
That's too bad. I have fond memories of that place. I dated a gal who lived in Strong Hall, and I always thought they had the best cafeteria on campus. The babes in the cafeteria were a bonus.
