Pearsons Hall
Pearsons Hall was one of the first four buildings built in 1897
after the fire that destroyed the Seminary building. It was named
for Dr. Pearsons, a physician in Chicopee and a Chicago real estate
magnate, who admired Mary Lyon's work. He donated money and founded
the endowment fund. Pearsons is located across Route 116 from the
rest of the campus.
Pearsons Hall houses 136 students on four floors in single and
double rooms, making it the largest residence hall on campus. Pearsons
was renovated during the summer of 2000. Pearsons is notable for
its beautiful common areas including multiple living rooms and a
sun room. It is located directly across Route 116 from Williston
Memorial Library and most of the classrooms, and is near the Village
Commons, a group of stores and offices. Most of the student rooms
feature new hardwood floors. The rooms also vary in size, like many
of the other older residence halls.
