What do Baylor residence halls look like today?

If you graduated from Baylor more than 10-15 years ago, chances are good you wouldn’t recognize life in a Baylor residence hall as it exists today.

For starters, virtually every hall has been either built or massively renovated in the past decade or so. That process began in 2004 with the opening of North Village, followed by the debuts of Brooks College/Flats (2007) and East Village (2013). In 2013, a series of residence hall overhauls began; South Russell debuted its new look in 2014, followed by North Russell (2015), Penland (2016), and Martin (2017). Plans for a new-look Memorial/Alexander were revealed this spring as part of the #GiveLightBU campaign.

So… What do these halls look like today? Take a look.
