Morris also designed Patton Hall, a 10-entry dormitory that was built in 1906. Originally, Morris had planned to construct Patton of a brick darker than that used for 1879 Hall, but the donors and the University overruled him. Instead, they demanded he use the local stone, with limestone trim.
Morris located Patton along a north-south line, on the steep slope below Brown Hall, to the southeast of the Gym. It featured elaborate carving and more intricate details than either Blair or Little.
