Rich Hall
Named after Isaac Rich, one of the founders of Boston University, Rich Hall is the building farthest west of the three towers. The 2nd floor has a different layout than the rest of the building due to it previously being an infirmary. It contains the most beds of any of the three towers in West Campus. The entire interior of the building was renovated in summer 2012, making it the final dorm in West Campus to receive modernization.
Unlike, Claflin and Sleeper Hall, Rich Hall does not have a dining hall occupying its first floor. Instead, the first floor consists of recently renovated lounge and study areas, including a cinema and game room.

Famous quotes containing the words rich and/or hall:
“To become a token woman—whether you win the Nobel Prize or merely get tenure at the cost of denying your sisters—is to become something less than a man ... since men are loyal at least to their own world-view, their laws of brotherhood and self-interest.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“I may be able to spot arrowheads on the desert but a refrigerator is a jungle in which I am easily lost. My wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes. Hundreds of such experiences convince me that men and women often inhabit quite different visual worlds. These are differences which cannot be attributed to variations in visual acuity. Man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.”
—Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)
