Naismith Hall

Participants will live with a roommate from the program in a double occupancy room in Naismith Hall on the University of Kansas campus. 

Naismith is a newly renovated,privately owned residence hall with its own dining service. The location of Naismith Hall is as good as KU residence halls and the residents of Naismith Hall are KU students.  Naismith is open all year. During the summer there are fewer KU students living in Lawrence, so Naismith Hall hosts younger students from local and regional schools and organizations attending summer camps at KU. If you live in Naismith in the spring, this will probably mean that you will have to change rooms for summer semester. In Naismith you will share your room with another person and share your bathroom with your roommate and the residents of the adjoining room. Naismith Hall also has its own workout facility and small swimming pool.

You are required to have a Naismith Hall dining plan. This dining plan can only be used in the Naismith dining hall.
