First year halls are clustered within residential neighborhoods conveniently located between the academic and athletic/recreation sectors of campus as follows: South End - Adams, Barlow, Bressler, Browning, Butterfield, Rainbow Diversity House (partial freshman housing), Weldin; Hope Quad - Hutchinson, Merrow, Peck, Tucker; West Side - Fayerweather, Gorham; and Northwoods - Heathman. These are co-ed residences in which female and male rooms are arranged along either side of a residential corridor or hallway. These halls have been selected specifically for first year housing because their floor plans encourage the kind of social interaction that facilitates the smooth transition to college life at URI.
