Apartments at a Glance
Katharine Hall
Located on the South campus, Katharine and St. Monica Halls are "twin," four-story residences that opened in 1986 to increase the University's on-campus housing capacity. Each building houses approximately 160 residents in double and triple room accommodations. As part of the south campus complex, they are conveniently located close to the Donahue Hall dining facility and convenience store.


Katharine Hall is named in honor of Mother Katharine Mary Drexel (1858-1955), founder of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament (1891). Having inherited a fortune from her banker father, Mother Katharine used it to fund mission schools and churches for Native and African-Americans. St. Monica Hall was named for the mother of St. Augustine. A devout Christian, St. Monica played a significant role in the conversion of her son to Christianity.
