History
Originally built in 1921, Hoffman is a small dorm, housing 36 women, nearly half of whom are first-year women. This three-story dorm is centrally located, situated next to St.Luke's Hall and the Bishop's Common. Hoffman was renovated in 1994, and it contains central heating and air conditioning.
Layout and Design
The rooms are arranged in doubles with hall bathrooms. The carpet is blue-gray, and the walls are cream colored.
The spacious double rooms contain two beds, two desks, two closets, two dressers, two shelf bookcases and have at least two windows, varying in size.
On the first floor of the building, there is a central common room, connecting to an outdoor patio. The common room contains television, VCR/DVD player, couches, chairs, tables, and fireplace. The kitchen is located next to the common room, and provides a large amount of space for cooking and dining. (Cooking supplies are not provided, however.) The laundry room is also on the first floor.
There is a large outdoor bike shed between Hoffman and St. Luke's for storing bikes.
Additional Information
The beds in Hoffman are 75" long and have approximately 14" of storage under each bed. Students are asked not to bring metal frame futon furniture as it often causes significant damage in students' rooms.
