South Community
A small community of freshman and returning students located in the center of the campus across from the Student Activity Center, these residence halls include suite-style rooms with private bathrooms.
The South Community is closed during Thanksgiving and semester/spring break periods. Students knowing they will need housing over breaks should explore a housing assignment in the East Community.
