Honors Housing
The Honors Residence at North Spencer Hall, opening in the fall of 2010, provides an extraordinary, newly renovated space for Honors student activities on campus. Amenities include living space for over 200 Honors students, renovated bathrooms and laundry rooms, a classroom equipped with global video conferencing technology, office space for residence hall and Honors staff, and a beautiful, well-appointed Common Room that serves as a hub for the Honors community.
Centrally located on leafy College Avenue, North Spencer Hall was built in 1904, and is named after Cornelia Phillips Spencer (1826-1908), poet, social historian, and journalist.
Students in the Honors Residence will enjoy:
- On-site Honors advising
- Extended quiet hours
- Honors courses that meet in the hall's classroom
- Weekly "Food for Thought" lunches with faculty
- Monthly discussions with international students about "What in the World is Going On?"
- Film screenings, student recitals, guest lectures, and other events
The Honors Residence Hall is an environment that allows students to integrate their academic and social life, and in doing so challenges and supports them as they grow as scholars, citizens, and human beings.
Information about how to sign up for the Honors Residence Hall will be available in November. To find out more about on-campus housing, visit Housing and Residence Life.
