It was not until February 1970 that the Jesuit faculty moved to Schott Hall and Hinkle became a faculty office building. Hinkle Hall is a three-story building designed in a Tudor-Gothic style. The towers of Hinkle are
designed to resemble the Francis Xavier Family Castle, located in Navarre, Spain.
