FIRST-YEAR RESIDENCE HALLS - NORELIUS HALL

Dedicated in 1967, Norelius Hall was the first residence hall at Gustavus opened to both male

and female residents, so it has retained a nickname of ‘Coed’.

The building houses nearly 400 students in 17 sections of 23 students each. Each section of 12

double-occupancy rooms has its own bathrooms and lounge facilities.

The hall has a large lounge with fireplace and conversation area (aka ‘The Pit’), an in-hall computer lab, and two large study areas.

Norelius Hall is located on the north side of campus, near Lund Center and across the main

parking lot from the Student Union/Campus Center complex.

Several floors of Norelius Hall are reserved for "substance-free" living.

FIRST-YEAR RESIDENCE HALLS - PITTMAN HALL

The southernmost hall on the campus, Pittman Hall is located near the Schaefer

Fine Arts Center, language classrooms, and the Nobel Hall of Science.

Its 190 first-year students live in double-occupancy rooms, each of which is

equipped with a vanity and sink, and is carpeted.

Residents enjoy a large lounge and television room on the lower level, and a

smaller lounge on each floor. Named ‘Valley View’ when it was completed in 1963, the hall was

rededicated in May 1987 in honor of Delmar and Jean Pittman of Stewart,

Minn., who, in 1986, provided the largest single personal gift ever given to Gustavus.

FIRST-YEAR RESIDENCE HALLS - SOHRE HALL

Completed in 1961, Sohre Hall has a floor plan nearly identical

to Pittman Hall, featuring double-occupancy

rooms, each of which is equipped with a vanity and sink

(without carpet). It contains a large lounge, television room, kitchen,

computer room, and study room. It is located on the south side of

the campus, next to Pittman Hall.

Sohre Hall houses 160 students, 80 being first-year students.
