Welcome to Towers Quadrangle

Allen, Beecher, Colt, Fenwick, Hamilton, Jefferson, Keller, Kingston, Lafayette, Morgan, Sherman, Sousa, Trumbull, Vinton, Wade & Webster

Towers is a vibrant community comprised of mostly first students. Students who live in Towers find an environment that is conducive to both live and study. Each half or quarter wing of the six buildings has its own name; there are sixteen names in all: Beecher, Vinton, Kingston, Allen, Keller, Fenwick, Wade, Hamilton, Jefferson, Colt, Webster, Sherman, Trumbull, Sousa, Morgan, and Lafayette. All floors in Towers are co-ed. Students appreciate living in Towers because of the strong community that has been built and the relationships they have made with their peers.

Rooms are double occupancy, with the exception of some triple occupancy rooms. A Resident Assistant resides on each floor to provide support, guidance, and to build community. Towers community is primarily a first year area on-campus but may have some students from other class years for 2021-2022.  These areas are designed to help students adjust to college life and transition to community style living.  Students will be assigned to these areas with other first year students as roommates. Towerspalooza is a popular event every year and is looked forward to by the residents!

There are 30 Resident Assistants (RAs) in Towers who are led by 3 Residence Hall Directors (HDs).
