A historic and long-vacant building on the Knoxville College campus was consumed by flames last night, leaving the local community and alumni in a state of sad reflection. The Knoxville Fire Department was dispatched around 8:30 p.m. to a significant fire at the administration building known as Elnathan Hall. Knox News reported that Knoxville Fire Department spokesperson Mark Wilbanks confirmed the building was a total loss and that firefighting efforts were challenged by poor water availability in the area.
