EULAC_6301 Taylor Hall Demi-tasse Cup "The tale is told that Taylor Hall was first occupied by 101 students, including 8 freshmen who moved from the old building of Gibraltar Hall on Gibraltar Camp Road to Blocks A and B, formally called Hall 111. These two blocks, the only two on Taylor Hall at the time, were soon joined by Block C in 1952, the same year the hall was officially opened. In this year, The Empire was granted the honour of being named after Sir Thomas Weston Johns Taylor, the first principal of the University College of the West Indies. The late Sir Sydney Martin would be named as the first warden of this great empire. By 1954, Block D had been constructed and fully occupied.\r\n\r\nFrom their chapel, the vanguards from Gibraltar had brought the bell \u2013 a continuous source of contention between the Empire of Tayloria and Chancellor Hall. In rivalry, Taylor Hall lost the bell, but this was soon replaced by another emblem \u2013 the cast iron ball. Taylor Hall since then has made the transition from the cast iron ball to the Pelican \u2013 still the insignia of The Empire to date.\r\n\r\nBlocks E, F and G, affectionately called \u2018New Block\u2019 were added to the Taylor Hall fraternity in 1962. Initially occupied by male residents, The Empire was graced with feminine elegance as \u2018New Block\u2019 became Excellencia , Falconia and Galaxia in 1965 as females, for the first time, lived on Taylor Hall . Erected were also the television room and the sub warden\u2019s flat in 1963.\r\n\r\nThe new university was completely residential for several years, and students developed strong connections within their halls of residence. Each hall, during the 1950s and 1960s, was fully stocked to cater for students\u2019 room and board; including having their own marked crockery, cutlery etc which was used for meals which students took together."
