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:
“They said they were an-hungry; sighed forth proverbs—
That hunger broke stone walls, that dogs must eat,
That meat was made for mouths, that the gods sent not
Corn for the rich men only.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Go where he will, the wise man is at home,
His hearth the earth,—his hall the azure dome;
Where his clear spirit leads him, there’s his road,
By God’s own light illumined and foreshadowed.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
