Herod Hall

Recognizing Northwestern as a vital part of the state’s higher education system, the Oklahoma Legislature in 1923 appropriated funds for a new campus building that became Herod Hall. Contract controversies delayed construction, which was completed in early 1925. In the years since, the building has undergone major interior renovations, and an addition was built on the west side. Housed here are the school’s main auditorium and administrative offices. An educational landmark for this part of the state, the building was named in honor of E. A. Herod, long-time, early-day math professor.
