Residence Hall Living. The convenience of on-campus living makes
it easy to go to and from class, use the campus library, and attend activities
during evenings and weekends.
The halls have a variety of interesting programs designed to add an exciting
dimension to on-campus living. Social activities include dances, special
hall and floor dinners, barbecues, and movies. Educational programs provide
information on such topics as alcohol awareness, appreciation of differences,
personal safety, and resume writing.
Individual Halls. The housing complex consists of nine residence
halls, an administration building, and the residence dining facility. Baker,
Graves, and Homan Halls each house 192 students in a design that encourages
building unity. Aspen, Birch, Cedar, Ponderosa, Sequoia, and Sycamore referred

room and bathroom. The coed buildings house men on one floor or wing and
women on another.
The majority of the rooms are shared by two students, although single rooms
are available.
Staff. Trained professionals are available to help make your stay
in the residence halls enjoyable.
How to Apply. The housing application process is separate from the
university admissions process.

marry, or otherwise leave the university.
