Alexander Hall
Alexander 2 entrances

Alexander Hall is a vibrant and friendly community housing only first-year students. It is centrally located on campus and shares an outdoor quad area with several other residence halls.  Alexander has two main lounges where students hang out, one for fun and recreation and the other for studying. Students love Alexander's small and close-knit community atmosphere. They find adjusting to college and making friendly connections easier in this first-year only hall.

The first floor of Alexander Hall offers Gender Inclusive Housing and a gender inclusive restroom. Gender Inclusive Housing offers incoming first year students the ability to share a room with someone of a different biological sex, gender, or gender identity, if doing so is comfortable and appropriate to their own identity. Learn more about Gender Inclusive Housing here.
