Claflin Hall
Named after Lee Claflin, one of the founders of Boston University, Claflin Hall is the building farthest east of the three towers. There are 13 floors, many of which are coed (except for the third floor, which is an all-girls floor for students in the College of Communication). In 2010, Claflin Hall was the first dorm building in West Campus to receive renovations.
Claflin Hall is adjacent to the dining hall, but students must walk to retrieve their mailbox contents and to print in the Resnet computer labs, located in Rich Hall.

Famous quotes containing the words claflin and/or hall:
“Let us have a fair field! This is all we ask, and we will be content with nothing less. The finger of evolution, which touches everything, is laid tenderly upon women. They have on their side all the elements of progress, and its spirit stirs within them. They are fighting, not for themselves alone, but for the future of humanity. Let them have a fair field!”
—Tennessee Claflin (1846–1923)
“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)
