Discover West Hall!

West Hall is located on the west side of campus near the Stevens Student Center and Callan Athletic Center. Just over 70 men, a mix of upperclassmen and underclassmen, call West home. In this hall style dorm, you'll find four halls each with a common lounge room, laundry room, and community restrooms.

Between West, Rickard, and Murphy, there is a shared outdoor courtyard. West also shares a common co-ed lounge with Murphy and Rickard called the Younger Center, which is a great place to hang out with friends! Younger has a ping pong table, foosball table, and a pool table, along with two collaboration rooms you can use as a place to study together.

Community at West

Spiritual Life

There is a collaborative effort by the Resident Director (RD), Resident Assistants (RAs), and other leaders in the halls to lead residents in spiritual growth and maturity. The RD meets with students throughout the week, but focuses a lot of time investing in the RAs to better equip, encourage, and challenge them to pour into the lives of the residents in their halls. The Resident Assistants do this by spending time building intentional relationships and encouraging spiritual growth through events such as hall bible studies, prayer meetings, planning community events, but also through one-on-one discipleship and mentoring.

Traditions

Rickard and West's biggest tradition, ManWeek, occurs every fall semester. During the week halls will compete against one another in manly events as well as hosting a few men from the University and local community to come speak to us on a number of topics regarding biblical manhood. Our desire is that every resident will be encouraged and challenged to grow deeper in their walk with Christ (1 Cor. 16:13-14). We are also starting a new tradition with St. Clair and McChesney Halls in an annual flag football game in the spring semester.
