Celebrating its opening in 1913, Reynolds Hall was named for Mrs. William H. Reynolds, the Lady Principal for Florida Female College from 1905 - 1909.

Landis Hall was completed in 1939 and was originally designed as a Seniors Hall.

Landis, who was an Attorney General for two terms for the State of Florida.

Gilchrist Hall was named in honor of Brigadier General Albert Waller Gilchrist who served in the Florida Militia during the Spanish-American War, and as Governor of Florida from 1908-1912.

Broward Hall was built for the Florida State College for Women in 1917, and was named after Napoleon Bonaparte Broward who served as Governor of Florida from 1904–1908.

Arcades connected Broward to existing buildings so that women could remain indoors when traveling to the dining hall (now the William Johnston Building).
