About Mertz Hall

Mertz Hall is a modern suite-style residence at Swarthmore built in the 1990s. Students live in 4-person suites with a shared bathroom. The building is more utilitarian than Swarthmore's historic stone halls, but offers better amenities including climate control and modern plumbing. Mertz is popular with upperclass students who prioritize bathroom privacy and larger living spaces over historic charm.
