Wolf Hall
Wolf Hall was named after George Wolf, the seventh governor of Pennsylvania from 1829 to 1835. Governor Wolf is known as the "father of the Free School System". He signed the Free School Act of 1834, which became the foundation of the public school system in Pennsylvania
Wolf Hall, originally built in 1960 and renovated in 2026, is an updated version of a traditional residence hall providing students modern amenities and conveniences. Wolf Hall is located in close proximity to the Millennium Science Building, White Building, Thomas Building, and the HUB-Robeson Center.
Pollock Commons supports students living in Pollock Halls.
