A tour of Fulton Hall
A short tour of Fulton Hall! Fulton is the largest residence hall on campus and is one of two halls with suite-style bathrooms. Each suite consists of two rooms connected by a bathroom. Depending on the combination of doubles and triples, there are usually 4-6 students sharing a bathroom. Fulton is on what we call "the hill." There are three halls on the hill: Tavilla (apartments for juniors and seniors), Fulton, and Nyland. The best part about being on the hill is being able to participate in hill-exclusive events, my personal favorite being King of the Hill (basically a giant water balloon fight between the three halls, complete with cardboard box forts!). Fulton houses both males and females and is organized by floor: the basement and first floors are male floors, and second and third floors are female floors.Quick facts about Gordon
Gordon is a Christian liberal arts college on the North Shore of Boston in Wenham, around 30-45 minutes from the city. Here are some quick facts about Gordon! Gordon's population, student to faculty ratio, popular majors, and a cool opportunity to create your own major or minor!Barrington Center for the Arts
Barrington Center for the Arts is located a little behind the library on campus and is constantly filled with tons of amazing art. Barrington has two galleries with continually changing art, a cinema room, a black box theater, a computer lab, a bunch of art studios (for woodworking, stone, pottery, painting, etc.), and offices. Behind Barrington, there is a garden, which, during the fall and spring, grows veggies and flowers that are free to pick (as long as you bring scissors and a bag!).A tour of our main dining hall, Lane!
Lane Student Center (commonly referred to as just Lane) has three different places to grab food, but the main dining hall is Lane Café—also usually just called Lane (confusing, I know!). Lane uses dining swipes (I explain our meal plan in another video!) and is all-you-can-eat. Our dining service at Gordon is Bon Appétit. Personally, I enjoy Gordon's food, but a common complaint is that there's not enough variety (I don't agree with this so much—I find enough variety between the daily deli specials, the daily-changing comforts, soup, vegan, and gluten-free stations, pizza specials, frequent grill specials, and the customizable nature of the stir-fry, salad, pasta, and deli stations). Gordon recently underwent major changes to our dining services, so a lot of students are still getting used to the renovated dining hall interior and updated meal plan!
