Brooks Hall is the home of our Music Department. If you want to become a music major you will definitely be spending a lot of time here. Brooks holds classrooms, a concert hall, and its own music library. We are building a new center for arts and creativity but for right now Brooks is the artistic hub on campus.Campion House
Campion House holds the offices of our Class Chaplains. We are a Catholic school and most of our chaplains are Catholic but we do not exclude anyone from making appointments or visiting Campion. Campion is open for Students to relax, eat a freshly baked cookie, or study. It's a great place to take a breather and start a conversation either with a chaplain or a fellow student at Campion.Showing You My Dorm!
Welcome to Hanselman! My home sweet home for the year. Here I'm showing you guys my dorm. My dorm is a typical first-year student dorm, there is not much differentiation between the different halls.
