 The William B. Conroy Honors Center is the second oldest building on campus and designed by renowned architect Henry Trost. Trost was influenced by Louis Sullivan who was also a mentor of Frank Lloyd Wright.
The central theme Trost chose for his design was the Mission and Pueblo Revival style. Hiram Hadley, the first president of NMSU, shared Trost's architectural vision. The Honors College is near the base
of the beloved field known as the Horseshoe.
It was furnished with gifts from donors throughout the then Territory of New Mexico and originally known as the YMCA building.
The building was brimming with activity soon after its completion as a men's dormitory in early 1909. In the 1920s it was a boarding house and a favorite place for many of the faculty members to eat. By 1929 it served as the music department. In 1964 it became the headquarters for the U.S. Air Force ROTC program, which remained there until the program was moved to the renovated Young Hall (another Trost building) in 1982. This historic gem was renovated through private donations and rededicated in 2002.
