Stillman Hall

Stillman Hall is a multi floor residence hall featuring mostly suite-style units, with a small number of standard double and single rooms as well. Typical suites include a common area between two bedrooms. Each floor of Stillman has a small, shared study area, and there is a larger lounge on the first floor. Laundry machines are located on the ground floor.

Jane Pinchin Hall

In this multistory residential facility, students reside in traditional double rooms on the three upper floors. Study lounges are available throughout the building. The first floor and ground level are dedicated to seminar rooms, classrooms, offices for the Residential Commons, and social lounges. There is also a small kitchen with scheduled open hours. Each room is individually climate controlled.

West Hall

West Hall is a multi story residence hall located between the Academic and Residential Quads, featuring mostly traditional residence hall doubles, as well as a small number of singles and triple rooms. There is a lounge space located on the first floor, equipped with a television and microwave, where students are able to study or socialize with peers. Laundry facilities are located on the first and third floors.

Residents are part of a vibrant community.

Faculty-led programs like our "Big Questions" series promote intellectual engagement outside of the classroom.

As part of the Commons Cup, students participate in activities and competitions across a wide range of subject matter, including competitive sports, like the Dodgeball Tournament. Dart Colegrove Commons was the winner of the inaugural Commons Cup (not that we'd brag about it).

Commons Cup

Each year, the four commons compete for the glory of winning the Commons Cup. Each commons accumulates points by having commons members participate in events within five categories: Intellectual Curiosity, Arts & Culture, Environment & Sustainability, Recreation & Wellness, and Community Engagement.

First Year Seminars (FSEM)

As part of the project of integrating students' living and learning experiences, each year, the Commons plays host to a number of FSEM classes in its residential buildings.
