White Hall is located near the southeastern edge of campus and was built as a men's dorm. It currently is classified as coed and houses around 140 students.
Amenities of the dorm have included a cafeteria and a small outdoor swimming pool.
Maps during the mid-1980s identify the main section of White Hall as the "weight facility."
During the mid-to-late 1990s, when renovations vacated other prominent locations such as the Estill and Administration Buildings, various campus offices were moved temporarily to lower levels of the dorm.
