About West Hall

West Hall is a traditional corridor-style residence hall at Colgate University, primarily serving first-year and sophomore students. The hall lacks central air conditioning, consistent with Colgate's older residential buildings — Hamilton's upstate climate cools quickly after September, making fans and open windows sufficient for most of the semester. Communal bathrooms are located on each floor, and in-building laundry is available within the building. West Hall's hill-campus location keeps residents close to Colgate's academic core and main dining. RAs facilitate floor community building through organized programming and an open-door approach to student support throughout the academic year.
