Tillman Hall at Clemson University
Tillman Hall, a building on the Clemson University campus, was constructed in 1893. Tillman Hall is the university's clock tower and signature building. Tillman was designed by Atlanta architects Bruce & Morgan. Tillman was built the same year that the college opened, but it was not until July 1946 when the building was named after Benjamin Tillman. The selection of the name was picked by Clemson's Board of Trustees. Prior to the renaming, Tillman Hall was referred to as the main building.
Tillman Hall was nationally registered as part of Clemson University Historic District I. It is one of the few remaining buildings from Clemson University’s original campus. Other original buildings include Hardin Hall and Godfrey Hall. Since the opening, Clemson University has largely expanded.
As well as Clemson University having a Tillman Hall named after Benjamin Ryan Tillman, Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina also named a building after the former governor. Both colleges were created under his oversight. Like Clemson University’s Tillman, Winthrop is also a large clock tower. The outside of both Tillman Halls resemble each other fairly closely.〔("Tillman Hall - Clemson University" ),''SCIWAY'', Retrieved February 2015〕
== Renovations ==
Since opening, the outside of Tillman has not undergone major construction. However, the interior has been rebuilt several times. The first rebuilding occurred after a fire that was set off a couple of years after opening. The next time was in the 1980s when the building was entirely renovated. Before renovation, the tower featured the first library on Clemson’s campus. It also included classrooms, laboratories, and a chapel. Today it is home to the Education department as well as an auditorium. There is a bronze statue on the front side of Tillman Hall. The statue is nicknamed “Old Green Tom”, which refers to the weathered down figure of Clemson University’s founder, Thomas Green Clemson. Tillman Hall also is directly behind Clemson University's Bowman Field. These two features are often the first sight when entering the Clemson University campus.〔("About Clemson University" ), ''Clemson University'', Retrieved February 2015〕
