Claflin Hall
Named after Lee Claflin, one of the founders of Boston University, Claflin Hall is the building farthest east of the three towers. There are 13 floors, many of which are coed (except for the third floor, which is an all-girls floor for students in the College of Communication). In 2010, Claflin Hall was the first dorm building in West Campus to receive renovations.
Claflin Hall is adjacent to the dining hall, but students must walk to retrieve their mailbox contents and to print in the Resnet computer labs, located in Rich Hall.

Famous quotes containing the words claflin and/or hall:
“No legislation can suppress nature; all life rushes to reproduction; our procreative faculties are matured early, while passion is strong, and judgment and self-restraint weak. We cannot alter this, but we can alter what is conventional. We can refuse to brand an act of nature as a crime, and to impute to vice what is due to ignorance.”
—Tennessee Claflin (1846–1923)
“While there we heard the Indian fire his gun twice.... This sudden, loud, crashing noise in the still aisles of the forest, affected me like an insult to nature, or ill manners at any rate, as if you were to fire a gun in a hall or temple.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
