Ledyard E. Ross Hall is a building on the East Carolina University campus located at 1851 MacGregor Downs Road in Greenville, North Carolina beside the ECU Health Sciences Building. The facility was named after Ledyard E. Ross, a class of 1951 ECU graduate and well respected Greenville orthodontist. The 188,000 square foot building officially opened October 12, 2012, and is home to ECU’s School of Dental Medicine. Until its opening, the School of Dental Medicine’s students shared their learning space at the Brody Medical Sciences Building.
Features
While Ross Hall primarily serves as a school to educate students, it also aims to provide reduced-fee dental care to low-income patients. The school houses specialty suites, such as orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, a clinical research area, and arrangements for patients with special needs. In June of 2012, Ross Hall opened its first of ten planned community service learning centers with intentions of reaching rural or underserved communities.
Technology
East Carolina University’s School of Dental Medicine at Ross Hall was named an Apple Distinguished Program by Apple Corporation as a result of its progressive implementation of advanced technologies for student education and teledentistry. Ross Hall possesses 133 operatories, or “smart classroom” learning halls, seminar rooms, faculty offices, and a simulation suite, in which attending dental students have the opportunity to practice their hands-on proficiency in dentistry.
