-The hall was part of a student housing expansion plan, financed through the federal Housing and Home Finance Agency. Within the expansion, new adjacent dormitories [[jackson_hall|Jackson Hall]] and Wheaton Hall (now [[trinity_hall|Trinity Hall]]) were constructed at the same time. All three of these dormitories were named for past Trinity presidents, in addition to Smith Hall, which was named after the [[smith_george_williamson|Rev. George W. Smith]] (1883-1904). Construction began in 1964 and the dormitory was ready for occupancy in fall 1966. Smith Hall opened with single rooms and multi-student suites.
-In fall 1982, Smith Hall was designated as the "Quiet Dorm" for 39 student residents. Residents were prohibited from playing loud music and games in the hallways. The initiative of a quiet living space was fostered and promoted by Trinity student Michael Ziskind '84 and approved by the Office of Residential Life. The following year [[frohman-robb_dormitory|Robb dormitory]] was also designated as a quiet dorm.
