The university opened Alderman Residence Hall in 1937, paying for its construction in part with funds from the New Deal’s Public Works Administration. Edwin Alderman served as university president from 1896 to 1900. A Wilmington native, he graduated from Carolina in 1882 and earned a distinguished reputation as a public education reformer and university president.
