Dormitories

Childs Hall

Childs Hall, the oldest dormitory on campus (1947), originally served as an all male facility. It was recently converted into an all female dorm. Childs has 38 single or double occupancy rooms on 3 floors, with a computer lab on the first floor and a kitchen/lounge on the third floor. There are additional rooms in the basement as well as washing machines and dryers. An apartment on the first floor houses the Resident Director.

Mullinax

Mullinax Hall, completed in 2005, is Southern Wesleyan's newest dormitory. Mullinax, an upperclassmen dorm, has the feel of suite style hotel rooms with each pair of rooms sharing a bathroom. It has 78 rooms on 4 floors for residents. In the basement there are washers and dryers, a game room, a computer lab, and an apartment for the Resident Director.

North & South Apartments

The apartments, for upperclassmen, offer four rooms, two bathrooms, a living room and a kitchen in each apartment. There are 35 apartments in use, with a capacity of 140 students. One apartment is used for the Resident Director. The twin apartment buildings were completed in 2000.

Stuart-Bennett

Stuart-Bennett, the second oldest dormitory on campus, was constructed in 1963 and enlarged in 1966. A disastrous fire destroyed the original female dorm, McDonald Hall, in December 1962. In its place a new dorm was constructed and named in honor of the two victims of the fire, Myrna Stuart and Crystal Bennett. While this building served previously as a women's dorm, it now has separate floors for male and female students. Stuart-Bennett has 94 available rooms on five floors. In addition, there are bathrooms on each floor. There is a lounge on the fourth floor. On the first floor, there is a nurse's station, a computer lab in the lobby, a glassed lounge in the lobby nicknamed the "fishbowl," and an apartment for the Resident Director.
