Fjelstad
Hall and Cornerstone Resource Center houses 134 freshman and upperclass
women. This English Tudor-styled hall was constructed in 1938 and partially
renovated in 1984. Residents enjoy the spacious wood-beamed lounge
and large rooms. Each floor also features its own kitchenette. The
hall is named after Helga Fjelstad, director of food service and womens
residence hall preceptress for 33 years. The Frida Nilsen Lounge, named
after a long-time English teacher and dean of women, is used for selected
campus meetings and small dinners. Once housing the college's library
during the years 1943 to 1955, the basement of Fjelstad now contains
the Cornerstone Offices for some student-run services and private study
and TV lounges for the residents. It was renovated in 1994 and was
designed to provide office space for college-recognized student organizations.
There are several offices assigned to individual student groups, in
addition to a larger space, the Cornerstone Exchange, which provides
shared office and work space for several organizations. Adjacent to
the Exchange is the Cornerstone Resource Center. The center provides
resources and staff to assist students in the implementation of campuswide
or small group programming and in the development of leadership and
management skills as they relate to campus organizations and/or personal
growth. Some of the resources located in the center include books,
articles, videotapes, resource files, and other supportive materials
and equipment such as clip art, a helium tank for balloons, and a button-maker.
A large, inviting workspace encourages individual students and small
groups to use these resources to enhance their co-curricular experience.
Rooms:
Many of the rooms are for three individuals, although there are a number
of single, double and quad rooms. Each room has beds (75'' x 39''),
built-in wardrobes and ches ts, a mirror, desks, chairs, drapes, and
a private telephone.
Study areas:
Study rooms are located on each floor. A study lounge with carrels
is also located in a section of the basement lounge.
