Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

It is named in honor of Edwin A. Greenlaw (1874-1931), former chair of the Department of English.
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.
