'''Slusher Hall''' (SLUSH, #35) is a concrete and [[Hokie Stone]] dormitory built in 1972. The dormitory was named after [[Clarice Slusher Pritchard]]. It has two parts, a tower and wing, connected by an area known as the Tree Lounge. One interesting feature of Slusher is the ugly carpet-like material covering its cinder-block walls. Slusher Hall has been rumored to have been built to withstand riots.

Rumor has it that it's cause was students playing football in the hallways, hitting a pipe in the ceiling -- in any case, essentially the entire building was renovated, with every room being re-floored and the iconic in-wall closets being replaced with standalone wardrobes.
==Slusher Wing==
Slusher Wing has is a three stories and -story annex to Slusher Tower that houses 303 co-eds. The floors are numbered 2 through 4 to match the Slusher Tower numbering. Slusher Wing serves previously served as the home for two [[theme housing]] programs, [[the Wing]] and [[Hypatia]], which has since moved to [[Lee Hall]].
