Harvey Mudd College entrance on Dartmouth Ave. Since any HMC student, regardless of class year, can live in any of the dormitories, several of the dorms have accumulated long-standing traditions and so-called 'personalities'. They were initially referred to as "the colonies" by some students, a reference to the fact that they were newer and at the farthest end of the campus these dorms are now more commonly referred to as "the outer dorms." The college had initially purchased an apartment building adjacent to the newer dorms to house additional students, but it was demolished to make room for Sontag. The fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth dorms built are Atwood, Case, Linde, Sontag, and Drinkward, respectively. To this day "South" dorm is the northernmost HMC dorm. When the fourth dorm (Marks) was built, there was one corner of the quad available (the northwest) and one directional name, "South", remaining. Then "North" was built, directly north of "East". "East" was the first dorm, but it wasn't until "West" was built west of it that it was actually referred to as "East". Mudd Hall and Marks Hall are almost invariably referred to as East dorm and South dorm.ĭuring the construction of Case Dorm some students decided as a prank to move all of the survey stakes exactly six inches in one direction. Until the addition of the Linde and Sontag dorms, Atwood and Case dorms were occasionally referred to as New Dorm and New Dorm II Mildred E. īeginning July 1, 2023, Harriet Nembhard will serve as the sixth President of Harvey Mudd College.
