South Hall opens its doors

South Hall, PLU’s newest campus residence, opened its doors to students on August 31. The facility offers a variety of living arrangements, including studio, two- and four-bedroom apartments, two-bedroom townhouses, one-bed-room lofts and one five-bedroom townhouse.

South Hall is geared toward older students who would like the convenience of a campus residence, but are interested in the privacy and independence of an apartment with separate kitchen and bathroom facilities. All residents are at least 20 years of age or have junior standing, and married students are able to apply for residence in the one-bedroom loft apartments.

South Hall’s success in serving this category of students is apparent in the newest figures for on-campus residents at PLU; the percentage of students living in university housing rose this year to 45 percent, up from 41 percent in 1999-2000.
