Warren College
Opened in August 2014, Warren College is located at the corner of West End Avenue and 21st Avenue South. Warren College provides state-of-the art accommodations inside gothic-style architecture reminiscent of historic Kirkland Hall.
Warren College houses 323 upper-division students in four, five and six-person suites as well as traditional double and single rooms. Students live on all floors of this five story building. Corridors and common areas are carpeted. Student rooms have hard surface flooring.
Warren College, and neighboring Moore College, are connected by the Kissam Student Center which provides gathering spaces, grab-and-go dining options, a classroom, offices, and meeting rooms. Notable spaces within the college include a great room and study lounges.
Warren College is led by a Faculty Head of College, who resides in an apartment on the fourth and fifth floors. The Faculty Head works closely with Residential Colleges staff and the College Programming and Advisory Councils to encourage the living and learning outside of the classroom. The residents are also supported by an Area Coordinator, Head Residents, and Resident Advisers who all live in the college.
The college is named in honor of 1925 Vanderbilt graduate Robert Penn Warren, member of the influential Fugitive poets and the first poet laureate of the United States. Warren College is comprised of two halls:
- Delbrück Hall is named in honor of Max Ludwig Henning Delbrück, a professor of physics at Vanderbilt from 1940 to 1947 who received the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 1969.
- Elliston Hall is named in honor of Elizabeth Boddie Elliston, a 19th-century Nashville community leader who donated segments of her plantation to the original Vanderbilt campus.
Residency also incurs the required Residential College Experience Fee.
