About Hanszen College

One of Rice's oldest Residential Colleges, Hanszen has a distinctive split personality between its Old Section (traditional corridor-style rooms from the 1940s, communal bathrooms) and its New Section (suite-style rooms from the 1990s). Hanszen is known for its strong community, eclectic personality, and its famous "Pub" — one of the few student-run bars on a college campus in the US.

Hanszen College has no air conditioning. Students here often pick up:

Gaiatop USB Desk Fan – 5.5" Portable (3-Speed) · $7.98 Vornado VFAN Mini Classic Vintage Desk Fan · $39.99
