The ADMINISTRATION BUILDING, oldest edifice on the
campus, a three-story brick structure, built in 1889, contains offices of the registrar, business manager, comptroller, the workshop theater, and the music department. On the second floor is a memorial tablet erected in 1894 to Benjamin Lee Arnold, president 1871-92.
This building has been renamed to Benton Hall and is currently home to the Music Department. A clock was added to the clock tower in 1988 in celebration of Benton Hall's centennial. This building no longer has a brick-look face that existed during the writing of the WPA guide and has had painted stucco added to its exterior to give it its current appearance.
