Residence Halls

Clark Hall

Ernest Clark Residence Hall houses 3 floors of 90 first-year women and student staff members in two-person rooms with suite style bathrooms.

Clark is a popular residence hall, in part, because of the large closets, extra storage space, and the divided study and living spaces. Hall amenities include washing machines and dryers on the first and second floors. Vending machines are located on the first floor near the eastern exit. The first floor of the building features a spacious lounge with a TV and a pool table. Clark is part of the Jones Complex on the east side of campus, and Clark residents share the community kitchen in Mabee Hall, which is connected to Clark. 

Clark Residence Hall was completed in 1962. Formerly named Kurth Hall, it was renamed in June 2020 in honor of Ernest Clark, Southwestern’s first Black student and graduate.

  • A desk chair (20”x22”)
  • Bookshelves above the desk and above the bed
