LIFE ON CAMPUS
Richardson Hall
Richardson hall opened Fall 2021 for residency, along Tech Drive, in Bulldog Village. With a centrally located floor commons in the knuckle of two wings, residents enjoy a space to study, share a meal and build a community. Separate smaller lounges/study rooms are located on each wing that will be accessible only by the students residing on that wing. Richardson hall is designated for both incoming freshmen females and males only beginning Fall 2024 and offers three different room configurations:
- a suite style option where two students share a bathroom in their room
- a single bedroom option where 6-7 residents share a community restroom of two showers and two toilets
- a two-person flex bedroom where two residents share a room (freshman-only floors)
- The flex bedroom options share a community restroom of two showers and two toilets with 7-14 residents.
The first floor, south wing of Richardson has a retail/dining space called, Quick Eats, and provides a convenient option for all residents of Bulldog Village. The proximity to the new intramural fields as well as outdoor seating areas provide opportunities for residents to gather outdoors.
