Prather Hall: Dakota Wesleyan
University
Prather Hall was built in 1906 of Jasper Granite on the campus of Dakota
Wesleyan University in Mitchell, South Dakota. It served as the university
president's home until 1936, at which time it was renovated into a music
hall. It currently houses various campus offices. Prather Hall's turret,
verandah, and asymmetrical composition are all elements of the Queen Anne
Style, popular in South Dakota through the first decade of the 20th Century.
Prather Hall received a Deadwood Grant from the South Dakota State Historical
Society in 2002 to supplement the costs of replacing the original verandah
that was removed due to extensive deterioration.
