Collins Residence Hall
Collins Residence Hall, first occupied in 1985, is named after William Avery Collins (’61), a major University benefactor. While a student, Mr. Collins was pledge master at Delta Sigma Pi fraternity, in which his brothers included All-American and future NFL Pro Bowl quarterback Norm Snead (’62). Collins also competed in track and field and played in the band. In 1994, he established a $2.1 million scholarship fund for students from his native Virginia. The dragon on the building crest honors the Collins family crest, which features a dragon of its own. Learn more about this hall here.
Famous Alumni: Tim Duncan (’97), multiple NBA All-Star and Olympic medalist, and Bill Haas (’04), winner of the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup in 2011, are on the Collins all-time roster.



FACULTY FELLOWS

Brian Warren
Senior Faculty Fellow
Associate Teaching Professor, Department of Classics

He grew up in Cincinnati and lived in New York City, Baltimore, St. Louis, and Memphis before he moved to Winston-Salem. If he hadn’t become a classicist, he probably would have been a swim coach.
