The '''South Dining Hall''' is the largest of the two student dining halls at the [[University of Notre Dame]]. It was designed by [[Ralph Adams Cram]] and built in 1925 in [[collegiate Gothic]] style. In the 1920s, the growing student population lead to demand for a new dining hall to host the entire student body of more than two thousand.<ref>{{cite journal |title=The New  Dining Hall Architecturall |journal=Alumnus |date=November 1927 |volume=6 |issue=3 |page=75 |url=http://www.archives.nd.edu/Alumnus/VOL_0006/VOL_0006_ISSUE_0003.pdf |accessdate=31 July 2020}}</ref> Previously, students ate in the [[Main Building (University of Notre Dame)|Main Building]], [[Badin Hall (University of Notre Dame)|Badin Hall]], or off campus.
