Longsdorff Hall (1964-present)

One of ten residence halls that originally made up the College’s Fraternity Quadrangle, Longsdorff Hall (Quad 6) first opened its doors to students in September 1964. Longsdorff, one of the six “upper quads,” first served as home to the Beta Theta Pi fraternity, and later became a residence hall for both men and women. The hall is named for Zatae Longsdorff, class of 1887, the first woman to graduate from Dickinson College.

The building was designed by Howell Lewis Shay and Associates and was constructed at a cost of approximately $200,000.
