Stribling Hall
Stribling Hall will be closed for renovations beginning Spring 2019.
Named in honor of Ruth Stribling, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. J.C. Stribling whose gift made the building possible. The three-story building was completed in 1921 and renovated in 1992. It is the only residence hall on campus that is made up exclusively of private rooms and houses 85 female residents. Centrally located on the quad, this three-story building is within easy walking distance to the dining hall, Crusader Café located in Mabee Student Center, the library, Mayborn Campus Center and all academic buildings.
This facility includes a large, recently updated lobby with TV area. The lobby was updated for the fall of 2011 with new furniture, flooring, and fixtures. Elsewhere in the building is a computer lab, study rooms, vending machines, and a central laundry room where laundry can be done free of charge.
Resident Assistants are assigned to each floor of the building and the Resident Director lives on-site. Building security includes a staff member on duty each evening until closing and a card access system for entry into the building after doors are locked.
