Hobart and William Smith residence halls are vital living and learning communities where students live with peers from diverse backgrounds in a variety of historic and new residence halls. All of the Colleges’ residence halls have been remodeled to include innovative social spaces that enhance community living.
The Office of Residential Education is founded upon a commitment to holistic education and a belief in the importance of the residential experience in a student's development and success. The Residential Education staff is committed to assisting each student in developing to his or her full potential and creating a supportive residential climate for all students.
Living arrangements include single-gender and co-ed residence halls, fraternities, townhouses, and theme houses where students all share a similar interest or cause.
Because residential education is so integral to a liberal arts education at Hobart and William Smith, all students are required to live on campus, with some exceptions for senior students, married couples and life-long learners.
All students live alongside Resident Assistants, student leaders who have been trained to offer peer assistance, and additional Residential Education professionals are available to provide support any time of the day or night.
