Hastings Hall
Hastings Hall was named after Daniel H. Hastings, the 21st Governor of Pennsylvania (1895-1899).
Hastings Hall originally built in 1965 and renovated in 2024, is an updated version of a traditional residence hall providing students modern amenities and conveniences, such as climate-control. Hastings Hall is located in the northeast quad of the East Housing area and in close proximity to the The Arboretum at Penn State, Palmer Museum of Art, Intramural (IM) Building, Jeffery Field, Nittany Lion Softball Park and Beard Field, Pegula Ice Arena, and Penn State Berkey Creamery.
The Findlay and Johnston Commons Buildings support students living in East Halls.
