Brooks House

The William P. Brooks House, also known as Brooks Hall, is a dormitory in Amherst, Massachusetts that is built in the georgian revival style with art deco accents. It is named after former professor and president [1] of Massachusetts Agricultural College, William P. Brooks. It is part of the Central Residential Area at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. It was designed by Louis Ross, who designed many of the dormitories on campus as well as the Student Union.

In addition to his academic and administrative career, Brooks is credited as one of six Founders of Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity in 1873 at Massachusetts Agricultural College.
