Magers Hall
Magers Hall isn’t just a place to live; it is a place where responsible leaders are shaped. Magers Hall provides students with a relaxed atmosphere that promotes individuality and “small group” identity. Students have a great balance between academics, social events, and community involvement. Magers Hall was completely renovated during the summer of 2005 and students were given the opportunity to create a theme and house names for the building. Students agree that Magers Hall is friendly, comfortable, generally quiet, and “homey”. Magers Hall consists of six co-ed houses. It is building number 25 on the campus map.
NOTE: Due to the type of furniture in Magers Hall rooms, lofts are not permitted. Loft kits manufactured to fit the beds are available for rent
