Taylor Hall, located across from the Kolf Sports Center, is centrally located on campus.
Currently under extensive remodeling, the hall will reopen with its "new" look and new furnishings for the 2005 fall semester. Student rooms feature climate control, sprinkler system and new furniture. It is a coed environment. The lower level contains a new kitchen, expanded recreational areas and new music practice rooms. The lobby has been designed as a gathering place for hall residents and fosters healthy interaction among community members.
Due to the facility's improvements, the housing fee for Taylor is higher than that of the other halls. Also, due to the new furnishinigs, bunks/lofts cannot be brought in.
Taylor hall as a tradition of active community council and strong Homecomming participation. The building is open during the academic school break periods.
