An eight story student dormitory located in the North Campus area. The Board of Trustees approved construction of High Rise Hall in October 1965.

Construction of the building began in May 1967, and was completed and ready for occupancy in September 1968.

It had a capacity of 128 students in the 1969-1970 academic year.

In the fall of 1985, freshmen were allowed to live in High Rise Hall for the first time, which raised the concern among some students of the wisdom of concentrating freshmen into selected residential areas. Nevertheless, a Tripod article from the time claimed that “undergraduate input has been largely supportive of that idea, and since it is best for the redistribution of freshmen to occur prior to the incorporation of residential academic 'mentors,' a program proposed for the fall of 1986.”

High Rise Hall was arranged to house four-person suites with four suites per floor. Within each suite there was a living room, single bedrooms and a bathroom.
