Jennings Hall was among the finest college dormitories in the South when the Mississippi College landmark opened in 1908. Heated with steam, every room had its own electric light and bathroom. During post World War II days, “Jennings Girls” lived four to a room. The brick building's creative design proved attractive, with all its rooms opening onto porches and a courtyard. A $20,000 gift from the family of the late Capt. Z.D. Jennings of Water Valley helped pay for its construction.
