Rather Hall
Rather Hall was renovated in 2012 and is known by Spartans for its contemporary, vibrant design. The hall is home to the Charles Drew Science Enrichment Laboratory program’s living-learning community which provides academic and social support for high achieving students pursuing science and math degrees, including individuals interested in professional health and science careers.
Fun fact: Rather Hall is named after Howard C. Rather, an MSU alumnus and professor of farm crops. When the hall first opened, it was boasted to offer its residents the most modern conveniences in the country.
