This UW building was named for David Thomson, who taught Latin and held administrative positions on campus for 45 years.
The old, Tacoma-based firm of Heath, Gove and Bell designed Thomson Hall to fit into the rest of the Quad's Collegiate Gothic styling, even though this was considered by many architects of the late 1940s to have been passe.
