“Dr. Brock’s legacy spans far beyond the many landmark successes of his presidency,” said Dr. Niel Nielson, president of Covenant College. “It is marked most definitively by his heartfelt love for students and the mission of Covenant. It is our prayer that Brock Hall will mirror his commitment and his zeal for the cause of taking every thought and action captive to Christ.”

Brock Hall, which is one piece of Covenant’s current BUILD campaign, was completed in May and now functions as a central part of the academic program. It features 24,000 square feet on three floors, and includes classrooms, a lecture hall, faculty offices, a faculty lounge, and indoor and outdoor commons.

The Dottie Brock Gardens now stretch between Brock Hall and Carter Hall, reflecting Dottie Brock’s attention to landscaping during her husband’s tenure as president.

“Whether it was preparing care packages for students or weeding the flower beds in front of Carter Hall, Mrs. Brock led by serving,” said Dr. Nielson. “It is our prayer that the Dottie Brock Gardens will be a place where students will learn to live with the same loving care and selfless service that has been a mark of Dottie’s life.”
