Kent Dining Hall

Kent Resident Hall, constructed in 1956, is named after Kent County, located in the central part of Delaware and home of the First State's capital city of Dover.

The adjoining Kent Dining Hall predates the residence hall by 31 years. The Delaware General Assembly appropriated funds for its construction to meet the needs of the growing Women's College of Delaware, which after being merged with Delaware College, became the University of Delaware.

Benefactor Pierre S. du Pont also contributed to the construction of the dining hall through the organization, Service Citizens of Delaware. This donation made possible the addition of the arched window hall and other architectural details that grace that building.
