My first home away from Home
Friday, May 18th, 2007
Sad news across a grateful campus. Dill Hall is to become no more. For all those who didn’t attend Troy, Dill Hall was my first Apt (dorm) my freshmen year of college.
Dill Hall is being torn down to make room for the new Education Building.
Man did I have some fun times there. Someone from Tallassee has been living in Dill 110 since 1987. It has been passed down over the years and I was the last resident of Tallassee to live there in 1995. I hope I did you guys proud. To the men that lived there: Travis Bryant, Dave & Ed Lawrence, Michael Pierce, and many more… I salute you guys.
Funny stories of Dill Hall:
- The Harley - Handicapped bathroom. Toilet was a foot taller. Had handle bars, and there was a footstool that even I had to use.
- Ed coming into the apt for HC and removing all these “borrowed” signs from my closet that he left there in the early 90s.
- Thursday night parties. We opened up the blinds and turned on the special light made up of plastic cups and Christmas lights.
- Having 3 seniors as roommates. I didn’t learn proper study habits from them…haha
- Having our own kitchen so we didn’t have to eat at SAGA.
- Having Mrs. Jones cook up a homemade Italian Meal. So Good!!!
Raise your glasses to Dill Hall!!!
