As a companion hall to Hammons House, this eight-story residence hall offers housing accommodations for 605 men and women on five single-gender floors. In addition, three coed, upper-class student floors also are available.

Each smoke- and tobacco-free 2- and 4-person suite is carpeted and has one or two bedrooms, a private bathroom, and a kitchenette with refrigerator, microwave oven, sink and cabinets and a dinette set. Bedrooms have two bunkable beds, desks, desk chairs, overhead bookshelves, wardrobes, and a shared chest of drawers and underbed storage unit.

Features include an aerobics workout room, fitness center, music practice rooms, large central laundry facility, TV lounge, ice and vending machines, recreation area and the Garst Dining Center which connects Hutchens House to Hammons House, as well as a computer lab offering the latest in hardware and software technology, including access to the Internet, word-processing and spreadsheet packages, and laser printing. The Hutchens House maintains both a more restrictive (weekend only) visitation policy on all single-gender floors and a less restrictive visitation policy on the upper-class floors. This hall remains open during all vacation periods, and requires a meal plan of all residents.

In addition, Hutchens House residents who have their own computer and Ethernet card may connect to the university's network through the network modules provided in each room. Access to the Internet and laser-printing facilities are available. More information about required specifications for computers and network cards needed to receive access to the network are on our ResNET pages.
