A domed rotunda is in the center of the building. Hattiesburg Hall is a three story red brick building on the right of the card. Trees and shrubs are seen in front of and around the buildings and the names of the buildings are typed near each building. The title along the top of the card reads "Mississippi Southern College, Hattiesburg, Miss."
