Elliott Hall of Music
Proscenium arch
In 1934, Edward C. Elliott, president of Purdue University from 1922 to 1945, envisioned a state-of-the-art music hall for Purdue. He wanted a facility large enough to accommodate the growing university’s commencement exercises and a building that symbolized his aspirations for the university’s future.
For Elliott to express such a grand vision during the depths of the Great Depression speaks of the kind of man he was, and his ability to make his dream a reality gives light to the results he could achieve.
