Benton Hall is the first building constructed on the Oregon State University campus in Corvallis, Oregon.

The building's cornerstone was laid by the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Oregon on August 17, 1887. It opened in September 1889.

On Oct. 28, 1987, Governor Neil Goldschmidt signed a proclamation declaring the day as "Benton Hall Day".
