Living at Hampshire
Hampshire is a residential learning community, with a seamless flow of academic, social, and personal life. Students live in five "houses" on campus, each of which has common areas, along with housing directors to help with programs and events.
Prescott House
Prescott House is one of Hampshire's three "mod"-style residences. Mods are one- and two-story apartments that usually house students in their second, third, and fourth years.
Each mod has 4 to 10 residents, all in single rooms. Prescott House, one of the smaller living areas, has approximately 210 residents.
Prescott Basics
Every mod contains a common living/dining room, a kitchen, and one to two bathrooms. Many mods contain a bedroom called a “cathedral” room. Cathedral rooms have tall ceilings that create a more spacious feel. The other unique room style offered in some Prescott mods is the “loft” room.
Loft rooms are divided into upstairs and downstairs areas, allowing a student to separate their space into a bedroom and a study area.
Prescott also has one “suite"-style living area. The suite houses six residents, and has one of the largest doubles on campus. Residents of the suite must be on a full meal plan because, unlike the mods, it has a refrigerator but no kitchen facilities.
Prescott Area Office
The Prescott area office is a hub of activity in Prescott. The area office is staffed by the area coordinator, who has principal responsibility for the overall functioning of the living area as well as resident student staff, known as resident advisors.
The Prescott area office also makes available a variety of items to improve the quality of campus living, including some cleaning supplies, vacuums, games, hand carts, trash bags, toilet paper, etc. Check with the area office for availability and procedures.
