Colonial Hall

Colonial Hall, one of four suite-style residence halls for upperclass students, is located on the east side of campus, just a short walk to most academic buildings. Acquired by the College in 2002, it houses 60 students with two students in each suite.

Formerly a motel, there are 14 rooms on the first level and 17 rooms on the second level of Colonial Hall; two Residence Life student staff members (Community Advisors) live in Colonial: one on each level.

Each room in Colonial Hall has dedicated heating and air conditioning and tiled floors. Each room contains one bathroom that accommodates one person at a time, therefore each bathroom is gender-neutral. Each room also has a MicroFridge, at least one window with a shade, a bookshelf, and mirror (located in the bathroom).

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 beds have two lower height settings: the lowest setting has approximately 12 inches between the floor and the bottom of the bed; the other setting provides approximately 18 inches between the floor and the bottom of the bed. Students may also loft or bunk their beds by acquiring the additional pieces necessary to do so. These pieces will be available in your building common space during the first several weeks of the fall semester.
