Paul Hall

Newly renovated for Fall 2026, Paul Hall is a residence hall built in 1957 and named for Williard S. Paul, the College's ninth president. Paul Hall houses 103 first-year students. Each of the 57 air-conditioned rooms in Paul Hall has a MicroFridge, at least one window shade, a bookshelf, and mirror.  Each room houses two students, with male and female bathrooms on each floor. Each bathroom in Paul Hall accommodates one person at a time.

Each student is provided with an extra-long bed (39 inches x 80 inches x 6 1/2 inches), a desk and chair; a dresser and closet space.

The bed frames offer adjustable height settings which you can self-adjust:

• 1st notch off the floor (lowest setting) provides 13" between the floor and the bottom of the bed
• 2nd notch off the floor (middle setting) provides approximately 18" between the floor and the bottom of the bed
• 3rd notch off the floor provides 23" between the floor and the bottom of the bed

Students may also choose to have their beds lofted or bunked. Lofted beds allow furniture such as the desk, chair, and dresser to fit underneath. Requests to  loft or bunk your bed must be submitted via a Facilities work order request to Facilities Services.

For those interested in bringing a rug for your room, a good size approximation is 9' x 12'. Learn more about personalizing your room, including a suggested packing list, and what you may or may not bring to campus.
