Honors

The Julia Tutwiler Prison for Women in Wetumpka, Alabama is named after her. In addition a large women's dormitory at the University of Alabama and a library at University of West Alabama bear her name.

When Judson College in Marion, Alabama, established the Alabama Women's Hall of Fame in 1970, Tutwiler was among the first group of inductees.
Tutwiler Hall on the University of Alabama's campus is named in Julia Tutwiler's honor. It is one of the most recognizable buildings on campus and was the first tower style dorm built on campus. It is an all-female dorm and it is located at the corner of Paul W. Bryant Drive and 10th Ave., across from Bryant-Denny Stadium

Famous quotes containing the word honors:

    The sire then shook the honors of his head,
    And from his brows damps of oblivion shed
    Full on the filial dullness:
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    My heart’s subdued
    Even to the very quality of my lord.
    I saw Othello’s visage in his mind,
    And to his honors and his valiant parts
    Did I my soul and fortunes consecrate.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Justice shines in very smoky homes, and honors the righteous; but the gold-spangled mansions where the hands are unclean she leaves with eyes averted.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
