| Abstract: | The Richard Halliburton Memorial Tower was built in 1962. The tower is connected to Palmer Hall and houses the president?s office. The tower is listed on The National Register of Historic Places and contains a bell. The Halliburton Tower features a bas relief of the Rhodes seal. There is a plethora of engaged columns and pointed arches. The sharp angles make the tower appear even larger than it is, and it is one of the largest tower on Rhodes? campus.
