A House newsletter, web page, and newsgroup keep residents well informed about all that is going on and provides forums for student opinion on House matters. It is also a tradition for Stouffer residents to share special skills with their fellow residents. In recent years, students have offered their Housemates mini-courses on juggling, photography, and drawing. On more leisurely days, they enjoy monthly brunches together with bottomless cups of coffee and weekend newspapers. Stouffer Hall is divided into six adjoining sections of approximately 22 rooms each.
Most rooms are singles, and all are fully carpeted and seasonally air-conditioned.
Mayer Hall has apartments which offer privacy, and most have just one bedroom, but there are 12 efficiencies and 12 two-bedroom apartments, plus lounges on several floors. Each apartment has its own bathroom and kitchenette. A small community of Penn graduate students, some with children, call Mayer Hall their home.
