Remschel Hall
Named in honor of alumna Corrinne Remschel (class of 1931), Remschel Hall was dedicated on September 24, 1993. The large lobby is open to the second floor walk-way and is dedicated to the memory of Gene Daniel Skeen, an alumna of 1923. This four-story building houses 114 female residents and is centrally located on the quad putting it 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 two lobby areas, study rooms on the first and second floors, a computer lab, two T.V. areas, vending machines, a large central laundry room where laundry can be done free of charge, and an elevator.
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.
