Kettering University

Welcome to Thompson Hall

Frances Willson Thompson Hall is the on-campus residence facility for Kettering University. The facility has four floors, and is designed in a figure eight formation with two courtyards. It is divided into 17 residential units of 17-37 residents. It has a spacious lobby/lounge, used for most social events, containing a sizable board-game collection and big screen television, and newly furnished smaller lounges located in various units. There is a laundry room in the basement of the hall, and each student has a personal mailbox located at the northeast entrance to unit 11.

There are two computer labs located in Thompson Hall. Located on the 3rd and 4th floors, each lab contains 6 flat screen computers on the campus network and a printer. Accessible to students using their ID card, the labs are monitored by video and computer center staff.

The residence hall has a main office which is open every day during academic terms and offers numerous services for residents.

Each resident room is equipped with a single bed, desk and chair, and a wardrobe unit with shelves. All rooms are air conditioned. Residents share community bathrooms, which are located at the intersections of each hallway.

Thompson Hall also participates with the Flint Journal in the Newspaper In Education (NIE) program. Several copies of the local paper are delivered daily to the building lobby for the students to pick up.

In addition to the facilities in each room, there are a number of facility items available for your use here in the hall. These items may be requested, as needed, from our main courtesy desk or may be checked out from this same location with your Kettering University identification card. 

The basement of Thompson Hall houses our recreation area. We have two billiard tables, a foosball table and an air hockey table.
