Living areas in Maple Hall surround a central lounge area, with single and double rooms housing 330 residents. Maple offers special interest housing for marine biology majors in one unit, students interested in wellness in another unit, and a 24-hour quiet unit.
Building Contains
Ideally situated near the center of campus, Maple Hall is located next to the Academic Building and across the street from a number of classroom buildings, perfect for those who prefer to roll out of bed and into the classroom! Maple Hall is unique because its living areas are structured as small separate units around a central lounge area. Maple Hall houses a total of 350 residents. Every room in the building is furnished with a bed, bureau, desk, chair, and closet or wardrobe suitable for the number of people in the room. There is also a telephone jack and data hook-up.
Units 1-8, 12
Maple has eleven identical units (and unit 14, but we'll get to them later). Each of these living areas house twenty-seven residents in nine single and nine double rooms. The unit is divided into four "quads", with two singles, two doubles, and a community bathroom. Each unit has a large bay window in the lounge and a television connected to the campus cable system.
Unit 14
Unit 14 is nothing like the other units! The unit was created in the summer of 1994 and is newer than the others. All of the rooms and common areas are carpeted and the furniture is newer. The lounge may not have the bay view of the other units, but it does have the television and microwave like the others.
Laundry Facilities
The laundry rooms are located at the bottom of the 4/5 tower and before the entrance to Unit 9. Each room has five washers and six dryers, all coin and debit card operated. The 4/5 tower has an adjacent lounge with television and vending machine for students' convenience while doing laundry.
Vending
There is a soda machine located in Unit 1. Also, just outside the 4/5 laundry room are soda, juice, and snack machines.
Staff
Maple hall is staffed by 13 Resident Assistants in units 1-14 and one Coordinator of Residence Education. The Coordinator apartment and office are located at the bottom of the 7/8 tower.
Special Interest Housing
Special Interest Housing offers residents an opportunity to gather with others who have similar interests. The goal is to stimulate educational learning beyond the classroom. Each Special Interest Housing unit will have a specific theme (as described below).
- Marine Biology (Unit 8) - Previously situated in Willow Hall, the Marine Biology unit has been moved to Maple Hall. This unit is just for Marine Biology majors. Residents who want to continue Marine Biology-related class discussions and explorations are encouraged to live with others who share the same enthusiasm.
- Wellness (Unit 3) - This unit is for residents who are looking for an environment that is substance-free and conducive to trying to maintain a "well" lifestyle. Residents of this unit will be encouraged to address each dimension of their life, in terms of: social, physical, intellectual, career, emotional, cross-cultural, and values aspects.
