Historical context
''The most beautiful building in the Southwest, Milton Hall was completed in 1947. This is how it was described a year later in Swastika, a college yearbook, “Presenting…the focal point of your pleasure…Milton Hall, the new student union building that is in use for the first year. This structure, which is named after A&M’s former president, Hugh M. Milton, and dedicated last spring, envelops the dining hall, private dining room, the student lounges, a faculty lounge, the canteen, sun room, ball room, book store, co-op, cleaners, laundry, barber shop, beauty shop, manager’s quarters, and space for a bowling alley.'' Cited from the Swastika, Volume 42, 1948, http://contentdm.nmsu.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/Yearbooks/id/7043/rec/42 ''Milton Hall was used as a Student union until Corbett Center was constructed in 1968. Currently, Milton Hall is home to KRWG-TV, KRWG-FM, classroom space, the Journalism Department, Center for Educational Development, Printing and Duplicating, and other departments.''
