What are Pitzers residence halls like?
Pitzer has completed three brand new residence halls that achieved Gold LEED certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. Atherton, Sanborn, and Pitzer Halls are primarily first-year student residence halls, although there are rooms for some upperclassmen. These buildings house students in double rooms, with two rooms sharing a bathroom. The new buildings also have staff apartments and housing for our faculty-in-residence program, a new mailroom, music studio, art gallery, Green Bike Program, and is home to the Office of Admission.
