| Brief History: | To meet growing enrollments the Hall-Moody Institute began construction of the dormitory in 1919. The building was originally named the Ellis Home for Young Women in honor of a Baptist Elder G. L. Ellis. When the University of Tennessee purchased the Hall-Moody Institute the building was renamed Reed Hall. It was primarily used as a dormitory from 1921 to 1975. The building was demolished for newer facilities in the summer of 1975. |
