Higgins Hall was built in 1965 and is named after Cortland community member Dr. R. Paul Higgins, who was on the Cortland Board from 1917-1948 and headed it the last 24 years of his tenure.
After it's 2001 renovation, Higgins Hall was reconfigured to provide suites and double rooms off of a corridor on each floor. These changes involved the addition of several designed single rooms and a fully equipped kitchen on each floor.
