Longino Hall was building C of the Departmental Dorms.

The sole three-story building in the Departmental complex also maintained a cafeteria for many years. In later years the building was home to nomadic university offices that were shifted around campus � notably Housing Maintenance (c. 1993) and, later, Residence Life (c. 1997).
