Groundbreaking ceremonies, marking the start of $10 million plus in construction for a new residence hall and baseball park on the West Campus of South Arkansas College in El Dorado, will take place on Thursday, December 5, 2024.

The residence hall event will be at 11:30 a.m. at 411 S. West Ave. The ballpark event will be at noon at the corner of South West Avenue and West Hillsboro Street.

The package of capital improvements is being made possible mostly through a $10 million charitable gift from Murphy Oil Corporation, announced Tuesday, June 4, 2024.


SouthArk’s upcoming residence hall, which is slated to open on our West Campus in fall of 2026, will be named Howard Hall following a gift of more than $2 million by El Dorado’s William R. Howard to assist in funding the facility. Here’s your first look at it! We are so incredibly thankful for the generosity of Mr. Howard, who will turn 101 years old in February. What an incredible man, with an incredible legacy. And what an incredible dormitory this will be!

Remember that the groundbreaking for both this building as well as the new on-campus baseball park is Thursday (11:30a on 12-5).
