Galloway Hall

Galloway Hall, built in 1966, was named after Methodist Bishop and college founder Charles Betts Galloway, who died in 1909. The facility is three floors, co-ed by floor, and comprises more than 32,000 square feet of living space.

Galloway is convenient to the Academic Complex and Murrah Hall, two of the major academic buildings on campus, and is in the immediate vicinity of other upperclassmen residencies. The residence hall rests near a park-like grassy area featuring benches, picnic tables, and mature trees, where students congregate to study or socialize in nice weather. The sidewalks around Galloway Hall are shaded by magnolias and hardwoods, and the facility also borders a basketball court. Parking is conveniently located directly behind the building.

Galloway is uniquely styled into cubes, each containing eight rooms and a bathroom. All of Galloway shares a large laundry room, situated on the bottom floor with an accompanying lobby, complete with couches and a television. Galloway rooms are divided into two sections by a closet, with desks and dressers on one side and beds on the other. All rooms have phone jacks with voice mail capabilities, caller identification, and call waiting. Each room also comes equipped with two internet hook ups. Galloway also features newspaper kiosks so that students can stay informed about local and national events.
