Button Ballroom

Ground floor ballroom with floor to ceiling windows. Why is it named Button Ballroom? In 1926, John Byrd "Button" Salmon, student body president and quarterback, was critically injured in a car crash. His last words to his coach were, "Tell them ... tell the team to bear down.” Today, this simple two-word phrase is a rallying cry that embodies the spirit of the university.
