Edward S. Harkness Dormitory and Apartments
Harkness Hall, located only steps away from the School of Medicine and Yale–New Haven Hospital, houses students from the School of Medicine, the School of Nursing, and the Epidemiology and Public Health and Physician Associate programs. Residents of Harkness Dormitory live in a secure building with recently renovated single rooms, and they have access to many amenities including computer network access in all units. Yale administrative offices occupy the first through third floors of the building. The great advantages of living in Harkness Hall are its close proximity to classes, and the opportunity it provides in bringing together students from the various medical-related fields in a relaxed social setting.
The first floor houses a dining and lounge area, known as Marigolds (described further below), which is open to the Yale community and provides both intimate and large gathering spaces for socializing, reading, watching television, and other activities. A Steinway baby-grand piano is also available for residents. The building contains limited resident storage including a bike storage area, an exercise/weight room, a billiard room, and a laundry room. The Class of 1958 Fitness Center, which opened during the 1999-2000 school year, contains a wide assortment of cardiovascular and weight training equipment. All medical, public health, physician associate, and nursing students are welcome to use this Center, where Student ID card scanners provide access. There is no fee for this benefit, but all users are required to register for membership.
