Dr. Waddel was called to be the President of the University of Georgia in 1819 when the university was struggling and at its lowest point. Taking the presidential reigns with only seven students enrolled in the university, Waddell was successful in raising enrollment to over one hundred students. The hall that now bears his name is the second oldest building on the university\u2019s campus. The building was completed in 1821 and has served several different purposes over its many years. The building was once called \u201cPhilosophical Hall\u201d. The building has also spent several years as a dormitory for students. Its walls have served as the location of the A&amp;M college, the home of Thomas W. Reed, the location of the Dean Rusk Center for International and Comparative Law, and now currently, it houses the office of Special events.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Waddel Hall is named after Dr. Moses Waddel.
