On-campus housing is very
popular. As a result, the buildings
fill quickly. Applications are
available in early May. Usually by
the end of June we have started
a waiting list. Because many
students apply to more than one
college or change their minds
about living on campus, it is not
uncommon for students on the
waiting lists to eventually be
assigned a dormitory room. If
living on campus is important to
you, please apply early so that
everything possible can be done
to make it a reality.
On-Campus Housing
The university's housing program is
intended to provide students a safe,
comfortable environment for living whHe
attending CSU, Fresno. Students are
urged to assume respons'lbi!Jty for their
actions and as a result it is the
university's philosophy that students living
in the residence halls should be treated
as mature adults.
The halls have a variety of interesting
and enjoyable programs designed to add
an exciting dimension to residence hall
living in addition to providing a vehicle
through which students can meet other
students living in the halls. Social
activities include dances, special hall and
floor dinners) picnics, and concerts. A
swimming pool is available for exclusive
use by residence hall students. Other
successful on-going programs include the
Book Fair, Trivia Bowl, and film festivals.
In addition, each semester there are
special trips organized to take students
to the mountains, amusement parks, and
the beach, Educational and cultural
programming include guest speakers
from both on and off campus, seminars
and workshops, and theatre trips. Many
other activities are planned by each hall
government based on student interest
and Input.
Individual Halls
The housing complex consists of nine
residence halls, an administration
building, and the residence dining hall.
Baker, Graves, and Homan Halls are our
three oldest buildings but offer excellent
design features for residential living. Each
building houses 212 students. The other
halls are generally referred to as
Commons although each building is
named for easy identification, Birch,
Cedar, and Sequoia surround the south
quad, while Aspen, Ponderosa, and
Sycamore surround the north quad. Each
floor in Commons houses 53 students. A
total of 1,272 students are living in
on-campus housing.
Almost all of the rooms are shared by
two students. ApprOXimately 50 single
rooms are available for returning
upperclass students. Rooms are
approXimately 12' X 14' and are
furnished with a desk, bookcase, dresser,
extra-long single bed, chair, clothes
closet, and storage closet. Each room is
equipped with a modular telephone jack.

You will need to arrange for telephone
service when you check-in, and then
lease a telephone or bring your own.
Refrigerators are also available for rent.
Coed Residence Halls
For many years most of Fresno's halls
have been coed, although there remain
three buildings (Sycamore, Aspen, and
Ponderosa) that are all women. Coed
bUildings are characterized by men liVing
on one floor or wing and women living
on another floor or wing, This living
arrangement has worked well, causing
students to be more responsible and
respectfUl at each olher's rights. The
demand for coed vs. non-coed housing
has remained unchanged for the last
several years. In almost all cases
students are able to obtain the living
environment they request
