History
Dedicated in 1963, the building was originally named J.A.C. Chandler Memorial Hall after Julian Alvin Carroll (J.A.C.) Chandler, the president of the College of William & Mary who helped established the Norfolk Division of the College of William & Mary in 1930. The building originally housed the Business Administration, Math, and Physics Departments. In 1995, the building was renamed Constant Hall after Old Dominion benefactor Theodore “Ted” Constant, and a massive renovation and expansion was completed in 2002.
