Chace Hall

Chace Hall is named after Edith Pitt Chace. As Director of the Home Economics Department (1919-1938), Chace oversaw the establishment of a home economics curriculum, transition of the department to the School of Education, and development of a home economics graduate course of study.
Chace Hall, built in 2013, is an updated version of a traditional residence hall providing students modern amenities and conveniences, such as climate-control. The basement features a laundry room and bike storage. The building also offers living area space, kitchen, and study space. Chace Hall offers coed housing, and bedrooms feature flexible furniture that allows students to arrange their room in a number of different ways. The building offers multiple private, single-user bathrooms located on the floor that are shared by all residents. Chace Hall is located in South Halls and near the White Building, HUB-Robeson Center, and is in close proximity to downtown State College.
Redifer Commons supports students living in South Halls.

Room Decoration Guidelines
Students interested in hanging decorations in this hall should use this recommended material: thumbtacks (less than 20). Other material (wall-safe tape, poster putty, etc.) is NOT recommended due to the potential damage to the walls. NO stick-on, removable wall paper. NO furniture modifications; nothing screwed or nailed into furniture.
