Ewing Hall

Ewing Hall is named for Rebecca Ewing, one of the first two women students admitted to Penn State College in 1871.
Ewing Hall, originally built in 1957 and renovated in 2013, is an updated version of a traditional residence hall providing students modern amenities and conveniences, such as climate-control. The building features a laundry room, living area spaces, kitchen, meeting rooms, and study spaces. Ewing 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. Ewing 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.
