Lau House
Located along North Washington Street and considered part of the Ice House Complex, Lau House is a 4-story house that houses 6 students in single bedrooms. Lau House is named after Dr. Robert E. Lau '38, a biology major who became a physician.
Lau House has a full kitchen and dining / common space on the first floor. Lau House contains three bathrooms. All bathrooms accommodate one person at a time and are gender-neutral.
Each student is furnished with an extra-long bed (39 inches x 80 inches x 6 1/2 inches), a desk with chair; a dresser and closet space.
Bed frames are adjustable and can be set by the student to one of three height options:
- Lowest setting (1st notch): 13 inches of clearance between the floor and the bottom of the bed
- Middle setting (2nd notch): Approximately 18 inches of clearance
- Highest setting (3rd notch): 23 inches of clearance
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.
