        About Noyes House
        The lounge in Noyes has been called the Jetsons’ Lounge by generations of Vassar students because of its futuristic ambiance. Designed by Eero Saarinen and built in 1958, Noyes House was the last residence hall to be built. Noyes currently houses 178 students and is the residence of choice for international students because it remains open during school breaks and vacations. The curved building encircles a large green, fondly called “Noyes Circle.” Noyes Circle has been the site of many different student activities, ranging from the first field day ever held at a women’s college in 1895 to a “nude-in” held by students in the early ‘70s. Currently, the circle is the home turf for Vassar’s Ultimate Frisbee teams.
