McDonnell Hall
McDonnell features two four-story wings connected by corridors to a two-story center unit containing lounge areas, dubbed the Ski Lounge for its wood-framed vaulted ceiling.
Each floor houses two "neighborhoods" with one single and nine double rooms surrounding a common lounge. Completed in 2001, McDonnell is named in honor of Elizabeth and James McDonnell III and their daughter, Katherine '94.
McDonnell also houses first-year students in our Residential Colleges — Bucknell's signature living and learning experience where students live in one of nine themed communities.
