Loyola Hall is a building on the Seattle University campus, in the U.S. state of Washington.

Description and history

The approximately 43,600 square foot structure was built during 1954–1955, dedicated in 1956,[1][2] and renovated in 1994.[3] Initially built as a Jesuit housing facility,[4] the building houses the College of Education, Middle College High School,[5] the Office of Institutional Equity,[6] and the Disabilities Services office (as of 2016).[7]

Daily mass started being served at the building in 1956.[8] On May 6, 1972, a bomb explosion damaged the building's windows.[9][10] In 2008, the James Ciscoe Morris Biodiversity Garden was dedicated outside the building to commemorate Morris' sustainable gardening program in his favorite spot on campus.[11]
