Wilson Hall is a historic dormitory building on the campus of Arkansas Tech University in Russellville, Arkansas. It is located on the west side of North El Paso Street, just north of West M Street. It is a large two story brick building with Colonial Revival styling, consisting of a central block, from which symmetrical wings extend forward from its ends, ending in slightly wider "houses". It was built in 1925, during a period of expansion in which the school, then the Second District Agricultural School, began offering four-year degree programs.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
