Eaton Hall's Radical Renovation

What this page looked like in The SceneState-of-the-art classrooms. Fresh paint. Lap top computers. New carpet. Unpacked boxes. This spring marked the official opening of Eaton Hall’s fourth floor, a 9,000 square-foot renovation of the historic 1909 building.

The departments of Anthropology and Rhetoric and Media Studies moved into the newly expanded office space, turning Eaton Hall into the home for Willamette’s humanities-related disciplines. In addition to office space, the renovation added two classrooms and a media lab, the most technologically advanced space on Willamette’s campus.

With new faculty offices, modern classrooms and multi-purpose meeting areas, the new facility will enhance faculty teaching and the student experience. In form and function, Eaton Hall will continue to be a symbol of Willamette’s commitment to academic excellence.


To date, Willamette has raised $1.4 million toward the cost of the renovation and is working to raise an additional $1.1 million. To support this crucial renovation effort, Willamette is offering naming opportunities for each of Eaton’s new classrooms and offices. For more information about Eaton Hall’s naming opportunities, contact Ron Korvas, vice president for University Relations, at 503-370-6397 or visit www.willamette.edu/support.
