O'Hare Hall

O'Hare Hall

This three-wing, five-level complex, made up of 13 “neighborhoods” houses 560 students. The majority of the bedrooms are doubles, with a significant number of singles and a small number of triples. Each double and triple bedroom has a private bathroom which is shared with the residents of an adjoining room. Occupants of single bedrooms share a bathroom with one other single bedroom occupant. O’Hare Hall features 13 community lounges (each equipped with living room furniture, a kitchenette, and a TV and DVD player), eight quiet study lounges, and four seminar rooms.

O'Hare's staff consists of two resident directors, 13 resident assistants and two Jesuits-in-residence. These staff members encourage all students to share in the goals of living in a residential college and of a Jesuit education.

O'Hare Hall's architecture facilitates an atmosphere that bridges residents' academic and social needs. The events and activities planned by the staff encourage all students to learn and grow. Many programs develop in residents a sense of community and citizenship, which will become essential in life after graduation.

O'Hare Hall Residential College is also home to 4 Integrated Learning Communities:
