Brief history: Now serving as a women's dormitory, Pemberton Hall was built in 1909 and named in honor of State Senator Stanton C. Pemberton. It is the oldest such residence in the state and has been named a historic landmark.
Ghosts: The ghost haunting this building has been given the name Mary and is said to be the spirit of a counselor who was murdered by a crazed janitor. Keeping an ever-watchful eye on her girls, even after death, Mary roams the building from room to room giggling door handles, and turning TVs and stereos on and off. According to one student who lived in the dorm in 1981, she saw the apparition of Mary float into her room, as if checking on her.
