Harriet Tubman Quadrangle

Named after abolitionist and political activist Harriet Tubman, “the Quad” is the University’s primary residence for female freshman students. The five residence halls within the Quad: Baldwin, Crandall, Frazier, Truth and Wheatley, form the shape of a square surrounding a central courtyard. Recent updates to the Quad which began in 2018 focused on extensive infrastructure improvements. Individual rooms, communal restrooms, and recreational/lounge spaces received upgrades, allowing the University to decrease density within these residence halls. These renovations increased the longevity of the five buildings while improving the quality of life for its residents. Renovation of the Quad is part of the University’s strategic plan to provide high-quality on-campus housing for students.
