Luter Residence Hall

Luter Residence Hall is named in honor of Joseph W. Luter Jr., a tribute by his son, Joseph W. Luter III (’61). Known for Smithfield Foods, the sausage company his family has owned since 1936. The boar’s profile in the building crest represents the company. Mr. Luter is an esteemed University supporter who served on the Board of Trustees from 1997-2001.
