History

Completed in 1961, Phillips Hall and Rhoades Hall (known then as The Administration Building and The Science Building, respectively) were UNC Asheville's first buildings. Phillips Hall originally housed offices, the library, and some classrooms. In 1970, the building was officially named in honor of Robert F. Phillips, a member of the UNC Board of Governors and the Asheville-Biltmore College Board of Trustees.
