Colbert Hall, located on the third and fourth floor of the Adminstration Building, is air-conditioned and houses approximately 120 underclass women. Triple, double, and single rooms are available. Each room is equipped with a twin bed, desk, chair, a chest of drawers, and closet space for each student. Along with that, each room is equipped with one data computer jack per student. A large community bath is centrally located on each floor. One floor is designated as an all-quiet floor.
