  In 1965 approximately $1.5 million were gathered for the construction of a new building to provide classroom and office space to the department. Construction began in 1966 using the design of Albert B. Cameron of the architectural firm Cameron Little and Associates of Charlotte. The five-story 55,000 square ft. building featured 21 classrooms, 109 faculty offices, 12 administrative offices, a faculty lounge (now Donovan Lounge), and library (now Gaskin Library) (“Greenlaw Hall”). Today, Greenlaw Hall houses the administrative offices for the Department of English and Comparative Literature and the Department of American Studies, as well as the majority of English and Comparative Literature faculty offices.
