Browsing: Penland Residence Hall

At last Thursday’s Student Senate meeting, the Senate voted to recommend renovating five university dorms – Collins, Penland, North Russell, South Russell and Martin. While the plans aren’t final, they will likely call for adding additional student lounge and study spaces, improving bathrooms, replacing floors and ceilings and improving the technological capacities of the residence halls. The plan would be implemented over the next 15 to 20 years.

Fort Faculty, the Bill Daniel Student Center, Fountain Mall, Baylor Sciences Building, Moody Memorial Library, and several other campus locations are under construction to increase green space, update furniture and finishes, and make space for expanded and new dining options.

Construction has been approved for a National Pan-Hellenic Council Garden that will offer recognition for the Greek organizations in the council and give them an opportunity to educate the Baylor community about their history.
