As the college continues to expand, we are excited to open our new 63 bed, three-story residence hall on campus. Each floor has common space allowing ample room for studying and gathering.
Rooms are double occupancy with a large common bathroom and shower that services each floor. The hall is designed for co-ed residences separated by floor and is a short walk to the main academic building and Rittenmeyer Athletic Center.
