<h1>MEDIA ADVISORY: Suttle demolition begins Wednesday </h1><div id="contactInfo"><span>University Relations</span> <span>News Bureau (662) 325-3442</span> <span>Contact: Kenneth Billings</span> <span>July 19, 2010</span> </div><div id="storyAndImage"><div id="story">

Demolition of Suttle Hall on the campus of Mississippi State University is set to begin at 2 p.m., Wednesday [July 21].</p>

Though no official ceremony is planned, organizers have scheduled a photo opportunity for media on the building's east side, where Ann Bailey, director of housing and residence life, will release the first official swing of the wrecking ball.</p>

Suttle Hall is located at the intersection of George Perry St. and Barr Ave. Attendees may enter through a southeast gate of the construction fence surrounding the building.</p>

The one-time residence hall, named for N.D. Suttle, former professor of agronomy and head of the State Seed Testing Laboratory, was constructed in 1967. The nine-story facility housed 599 students annually before closing after the 2006-07 school year.</p>

A plan is in development to make the structure's bricks available to the public once demolition is complete.</p>

Bailey and housing staff members will be available to answer questions from media.</p></div></div>

Lived ina room that someone had painted with a science fiction theme... Spaceships... And the main colors used were brown and orange (with the occasional yellow). It was worse than the visitors locker room at Auburn's new basketball arena...

Four years at 204 Suttle -- quick walk to anywhere... but it was a tent compared to today's halls -- actually having to share a bathroom with seven other guys --- that's horrible!!!
