The Early Years
Maggi Smith Hall was built in 1883 as the main building for Stetson University, then known as DeLand Academy. The building was named after Julia E. Maggi, the wife of Stetson University's founder, John B. Stetson. Maggi Smith Hall was a state-of-the-art facility for its time, featuring a library, classrooms, and a chapel. It was the center of campus life for Stetson students for over 50 years.

A Changing Campus
As Stetson University grew, so did its campus. In the early 1900s, new buildings were constructed, and Maggi Smith Hall was no longer the focal point of campus life. However, the building continued to be used for classes and administrative offices.
