In the year following the fire, North Hall was rebuilt and opened its doors to students. The newly constructed building was built in a colonial style. North Hall is the University’s oldest dormitory, offering current students a traditional residence hall experience.

North Hall still stands, greeting students and faculty as it has since it was rebuilt. Today, North Hall is also the home of Undergraduate and Graduate Admissions, Academic Services, and Orientation. It also contains a flipped classroom used by the Physics Department.
