Abstract
Kennedy Hall was built in 1925 and remodeled in 1968. It is dedicated to Dr. Berthold S. Kennedy and is listed on The National Register of Historic Places, along with the Richard Halliburton Memorial Tower. It features many pointed arches, some of which are blind arches. There are also many dormer windows, like most buildings on campus. There are a few engaged columns which give the building a castle like appearance in some parts. To learn more see Collegiate Gothic: The Architecture of Rhodes College by William Morgan or visit the Rhodes website at www.rhodes.edu.
