Huffman Residence Hall is named after Frank O. Huffman. A 1901 graduate of Wake Forest, he was a leader in the North Carolina furniture industry. The building’s construction was made possible through the donations of Mr. Huffman’s family members. The Hall Office for the Poteat/Huffman Community is located in the community lounge of Poteat Residence Hall.
