About The Hall

Hughes Hall houses approximately 300 students and has a traditional residence hall design with corridor-style rooms and shared floor bathrooms. Each floor community has a central lounge space with a kitchen, lounge furniture, and television for students to study or socialize with their community. Each floor also has a laundry room. The building is connected to McDowell Hall, a sophomore building. Nearby is the Woods Brown Amphitheatre, a peaceful and eventful green space for the 51²è¹Ý community. The Cassell Fitness Center, open to all 51²è¹Ý students, is a short walk away.
