Founders Hall

Welcome to Founders Hall

Completed in 1954, Founders sits in the heart of the University of Dayton campus and is home to 400 first-year students. Founders Hall has mostly double rooms, and hallways often become the spaces for informal study and social gatherings. Its horseshoe shape makes it easy to know your way around the building and ensures many rooms overlook the central courtyard. Kennedy Union and the Central Mall are outside the building's north doors, so residents are always near the hustle and bustle of campus and most academic buildings
