DuPont Hall
Dedicated in 1966.
DuPont Hall's approximately 265 residents enjoy living in double suites on three floors. For the 2025-26 academic year, first-year students occupy the 1st floor and upperlevel students occupy the 2nd and 3rd floor.
Each floor has two lounges that are often designated as social or study lounges by the Hall Council. The laundry rooms are on the second floor and a large, full-size communal kitchen is available in the lower level.
The center of life in DuPont is the main foyer, "The Pit," known for its social atmosphere where residents study, play games or relax around the fireplace.
