Opening in 1971, Luter Residence Hall is named for Joseph Williamson 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. The hall’s spacious commons area hosted a concert featuring Australian folk-rocker Jennifer Knapp in 2012. Learn more about this hall here.

Famous Alumni: Zachary Andrew Klein (’04), co-founder of video-sharing website Vimeo, and 2012 U.S. Open golf champion Webb Simpson (’08) are former Luter residents.
