Hanson Hall

Hanson Hall

Hanson Hall is a traditional residence hall that consists of four floors and 82 rooms. Each room in Hanson Hall has tiled floors and typically houses two students with male and female bathrooms on each floor. The ground floor has only one community bathroom and is usually designated as a single-gender floor.  All bathrooms in Hanson Hall accommodate more than one person at a time and are single gender (male or female).

Each room in Hanson Hall is air-conditioned, has a MicroFridge, at least one window and shade, and a mirror. 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 loft or bunk their beds by acquiring the additional pieces (such as bed ends and pins) necessary to do so. These additional pieces will be available in the common rooms during move-in. Students can also request for Facilities Services staff to loft/bunk their bed for them by completing a work order.

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.
