More Upper Class Dorms

There are four other upper class dorms also located closest to the upper campus of Trinity University.  The four dorms include Lightner, McLean, Murchison, and South. 

Located between Prassel and Thomas Halls on the western side of campus, Camille Lightner Hall is one of the university’s most popular halls.  Each of the thirty suites on five floors contains a living room area.  Even more, each room, instead of each suite, has its own bathroom, which is unique to Lightner.     

Verna  McLean, which is located on the east side of Trinity’s campus and across from the Bell Athletic Center, houses upper class students on its two upper floors.  Each suite has its own balcony.  There are kitchens located on each floor, as well as several study lounges.  There is also access to the roof of McLean, which contains a deck with patio furniture.

Murchison Hall, which is close to the Coates University Center and the university’s outdoor swimming pool, contains Murchison Lounge, which is a wonderful alternative study environment.  This is a two-story dorm.

Located on the western end of campus, South Hall offers views of both the university’s football field and the skyline of San Antonio.  Several of the rooms located on the first floor of this dorm were originally designed to house three students.  South Hall allows for access to the North/South Foyer, which is both a study lounge and a game room.

Upper Class Dorms

Juniors and seniors occupy the rest of the residence halls, which are located on the western and central edges of lower campus.  All residence halls for upper classmen are located closest to the upper campus of Trinity University.

Isabel Hall offers breathtaking views of downtown San Antonio and the football field of Trinity.  This residence hall is part of the McFarlin complex, which is comprised of Isabel, Susanna, and Myrtle Halls.  There is a laundry room on the first floor, a study lounge on the second floor with a large television, and each suite has a balcony.  Isabel Hall also offers access to the North/South Foyer and Heidi Lounge. 

Susanna Hall is another upper-class hall that is one of the three halls that comprise the McFarlin complex.  It is centrally located near upper campus.  Residents of Susanna Hall typically use the laundry room located in Isabel Hall, as it is the closest laundry facility.  Susanna Hall also offers easy access to the North/South Foyer and Heidi Lounge.  There is a study lounge with a large television on the second floor and suitemates share a balcony with each other.

Located above the Elizabeth Rhea Health Services Center and next to both Isabel and Susanna Halls, Myrtle McFarlin Hall is centrally located near upper campus.  There is a laundry room in Isabel Hall that students can use.  The residence hall also offers easy access to Heidi Lounge, which is equipped with vending machines.  Residents of Myrtle can enjoy a lounge area located on the second floor of the building, as well as balconies that are shared with suitemates.
