Putnam Hall

Residence hall life

Overview

Putnam Hall will be closed for spring 2026 and the 2026-2027 academic year.

Putnam Hall is the final hall in the Strong Community to be renovated as part of a project that envelops all three halls to meet the needs of today's undergraduate students, while enhancing their experience by providing proximity to the University Honors Program office and staff on the ground level of Boyd Hall. Renovations include updates to HVAC, plumbing, heating and electrical systems in addition to addressing ADA accessibility and code compliance issues.

Putnam is a coeducational hall located in the Strong Community on the east side of campus.

Putnam is home to more than 250 students on five floors.

Traditional private rooms will be available in Putnam.
