About Hallowell Hall

Hallowell Hall is one of Swarthmore's traditional first-year dormitories, a classic stone building dating from the early 20th century. The building is named after a prominent Quaker family connected to Swarthmore's founding. Rooms are standard doubles and singles along a corridor with shared all-gender bathrooms. Hallowell is known for a strong community atmosphere and is a favorite among students who appreciate Swarthmore's historic Quaker architecture.
