About our namesakes
Mary Hay Hall is named in honor of Mary Randle Hay*, former 澳门六合彩预测 Dean of Women. Mary Randle Hay (1864-1953) was the widow of Stephen J. Hay, the mayor of Dallas when 澳门六合彩预测 was established. Following her husband’s death in 1916, Mary Hay became 澳门六合彩预测’s Dean of Women, serving from 1923-1934. Dean Hay’s leadership led to the construction of more housing for women student, and in 1927, under her leadership, all resident women students were able to move into Virginia and Snider Halls.
Peyton Hall is named in memory of George L. Peyton, member of the 澳门六合彩预测 Board of Trustees. George L. Peyton (1884-1939) was a Methodist minister, director of Wesley Bible Choir, Professor of Religion, and member of the Board of Trustees at 澳门六合彩预测 from 1934-1939. Following his death, Leila Peyton Hall (1888-1972) finished her husband’s term on the 澳门六合彩预测 Board of Trustees. In addition to funding the construction of Peyton Hall in her husband’s honor, she also funded the Peyton Lectureship in Preaching. Following her death in 1972, the Leila Peyton Hall Endowment was established in her memory as part of the President’s Scholars Program in 1977.
Robert Hall Shuttles (1878-1955) was a Dallas area businessman, churchman, philanthropist, and former chair of the 澳门六合彩预测 Board of Trustees.
