The structure is devoid of surrounding landscaping; a dirt path leads to the entrance. Morrill Hall was named for Senator Justin S. Morrill, whose bill of 1862 provided for the foundation of land grant institutions. Begun in 1901, it remained unfinished until 1903 due to legal problems that temporarily halted all building funds. Designed by Josenhans & Allen at a cost $33,000, Morrill Hall originally served as the chemistry building (until the construction of Fulmer Hall). An innovative feature of the structure was the placement of the general laboratory on the top floor to provide better ventilation.plain2019-05-09T16:51:41+00:00Is found in PC 3, WSU Buildings Photographs http://libraries.wsu.edu/masc/finders/pc3.htm at Washington State University Libraries' Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections (MASC) http://libraries.wsu.edu/mascpc003b05f02; pc149b2n78-410ImageCampus buildings--Washington (State)--Pullman; Research facilities--Washington (State)--Pullman; Morrill Hall1903United States--Washington (State)--Whitman County--Pullmanark:/80444/xv40374Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections, Washington State University Libraries: http://libraries.wsu.edu/mascNo known copyright.
