Strahorn Hall

Strahorn Hall was built in 1926 by Robert Strahorn, an officer on the Oregon Short Line Railroad, as a library and memorial to Carrie Adell Strahorn. The exterior of Strahorn Hall was completely constucted of Idaho sandstone at his insistence. Strahorn is now used to house classrooms and many of the faculty offices of the Anthropology and Sociology, English, History, Philosophy and Religion, and Political Economy departments.
