Smith Hall History
The first residence hall expressly planned for Roanoke College women was opened in September of 1941 and honors Dr. Charles J. Smith '01, the fifth president, who served from 1920 until 1949. He lived in Salem and is the beloved "Dr. Charlie" honored in the words on the Administration Building plaque. Smith Hall underwent renovations in the summer of 1989.
