Now that Bagley Hall is no longer an all-male dorm and Hanson Hall has turned coed, the only non coed dorms that are left include Lang Hall, Victoria House, and the new Zeve Hall. All of these residence halls are only reserved for women.
Zeve Hall is the new freshmen center located near Saylor Hall. This hall will house twenty freshmen women. Zeve Hall used to be Boys' Town, a home for boys; Since B-W is presently leasing it to make more space available for freshmen, they pretty much had to keep the original name of the building, which was called Zeve Building.
Last year, Baldwin-Wallace College purchased 21 Beech, also known as Zeve Hull. Sixteen students from 21 Beech had to move out to make way for the construction that needed to take place. Renovations started at the beginning of Spring quarter last year. 21 Beech now has wall to wall carpeting throughout the halls and in the rooms.
Becky Shaw, the Director of Residence Life, said, "The rooms in 21 Beech are gorgeous." The baths on the first floor and the basement were completely remodeled. Furniture is brand new throughout the hall.
…
The students definitely approve of the renovations. The freshmen of 21 Beech Street are so pleased with their "home away from home," there is talk of a petition to slay all four years.
Much to their chagrin, 21 Beech is part of the freshmen housing, reserved each year for first-year students only. But they, along with other students in other dorms, can enjoy the new renovations for the time being.
