 North Quad Residence Halls

Anderson Street Hall is home to substance-free housing for the 2009 - 2010 academic year. Anderson Street 2 will be home to substance-free, upperclass men and Anderson Street 3 will be home to substance-free, first-year women. Due to the size, Anderson Street Hall allows for students to create a close-knit community, located near the center of campus. This residence hall is also home to the Residence Life and Housing Office, located on the first floor of the building. Click here to see pictures.

Bloomington Street Hall is home to 47 upperclass students. Bloomington Street Hall has both single and double rooms. The hall is known for its spacious common areas and large rooms. Bloomington is the easternmost residence hall, located on Route 231. Click here to see pictures.

Mason Hall was built in 1940, and it is the northern arm of the traditional open-style North Quad area. Students who live on the third and fourth floors choose to refrain from using alcohol, tobacco, or drugs in the residence hall, while all floors in Mason are dedicated to making responsible choices in all areas of their lives, creating more social alternatives, and maintaining a strong academic focus. Mason's 110 first-year and upperclass residents live in single, double rooms, and triple rooms. Click here to see pictures.

Rector Village is comprised of seven small residence halls. Completed in 2004, Rector Village was built to replace Rector Hall, which was destroyed during a fire in April, 2002. Each hall in Rector Village features a suite for 5 or 8 upperclass students, complete with full kitchens and living rooms. Eight-person suites have single rooms and two and a half bathrooms, while five-person suites have three single rooms and one double room with one and a half bathrooms. Students living in Rector Village are required to be on a meal plan, but they have the option of downgrading to a smaller meal plan. (For information on meal plans, please see the Dining Services website.) The main building of Rector Village, Reese Hall, houses a common space accessible to all students for events, meeting and socializing, as well as laundry facilities for UOAH residents.
