MUDD-BLAISDELL,
the largest residence hall on South Campus, houses over 280
students in singles and one-room doubles. It is situated
around a grassy courtyard and is adjacent to tennis courts
and a swimming pool. Two large central lounges provide
students with a break from hall life. In addition, Gibson
Computer Center is available for all South Campus residents.
Other facilities in the residence hall include two kitchens,
a conference room, two laundry rooms in the basement and a
sun deck on the roof. Mostly first-year students occupy the
one-room doubles. Mudd-Blaisdell was completely renovated
and air conditioning was installed during the summers of
2000 and 2001. Mudd-Blaisdell is a smoke free building.

Built in 1921, it was most recently renovated in 1992 to

which includes a softball field as well as volleyball and
basketball courts. The Pendleton Swimming Pool borders one
side of Wig Beach. Wig is a smoke free building.

OLDENBORG CENTER for Modern
Languages and International Relations offers a unique living
and academic experience to its 140 residents. The Center
provides language sections in Spanish, French, German,
Russian, Japanese, and Mandarin Chinese, directed by
graduate student language residents who are native speakers
of their languages. Residents representing a wide range of
academic concentrations participate in a program emphasizing
foreign languages and international relations. The formal
requirements for living in Oldenborg include a year's study
of a foreign language on the college level (or the
equivalent) and a willingness to join in the Center's
extracurricular activities. Oldenborg was recently
completely renovated and has air-conditioning. It is a smoke
free building.
THE COTTAGES are three separate
units housing four to five students. These bungalows were
originally part of the old Claremont Hotel. The Cottages are
assigned to students through an application process and most
of the residents are sophomores. Laundry facilities are
available in Wig Hall across the street. |
