One of the oldest building’s on Georgia College’s main campus square, Terrell Hall was rehabilitated for use by GCSU’s Mass Communication department to allow collaboration between all media, necessary to meet today’s demands on students to have a wellrounded education.
Terrell Hall, completed in 1909 and originally used as a residence hall before being used as offices, overlooks the historic front campus. The building had not previously undergone a complete renovation, which has helped Terrell Hall retain much of its historic character.
The project focused on removing inappropriate insertions from renovations in the 1960s and 1970s; improving accessibility, including the installation of an elevator; updating mechanical systems and installing HVAC; and improving energy efficiency.
