may be slated for , but right now, it’s still standing and giving to live on South Campus.

And it’s included in the 2012 statewide list of Places in Peril issued today by the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation.

Other buildings in peril are Orange Hall in St. Marys; W.W. Law House in Savannah; historic railroad buildings of Atlanta; Historic Liberty Street in Milledgeville; Randolph County Courthouse in Cuthbert; Mt. Zion Church in Sparta; Crown Mill Store in Dalton; Secondary Industrial High School in Columbus; and, Chattahoochee Park Pavilion in Gainesville.

"This is the Trust's seventh annual Places in Peril list," said Mark C. McDonald, president and CEO of the Trust. "We hope the list will continue to bring preservation action to Georgia's imperiled historic resources by highlighting ten representative sites," McDonald said.

Places in Peril began in order to raise the public’s awareness about Georgia's mportant historic, archaeological and cultural resources. These include buildings, structures, districts, archaeological sites and cultural landscapes. And they may be threatened by demolition—like Rutherford Hall---or by neglect, a lack of maintenance, inappropriate development or insensitive public policy.
