Welcome to Kenan Community—known for its grassy quad, spacious study lounges,... beautifully decorated common areas, and inviting porches complete with wooden benches and rocking chairs for those warm spring days.
Kenan Community can be described as possessing three elements—excitement, energy, and close proximity to all you could ever ask for, including classes, the Student Union, and the Franklin Street downtown area with shopping and dining establishments. The Kenan Community staff, also known as Team Kenan, hosts many fun events each year including the Kenan Karnival, International Thanksgiving, and Screen on the Green.
Kenan Community houses about 450 residents per year and includes four buildings—Spencer, Alderman, McIver, and Kenan.
Kenan Hall is an all-female residence hall with three floors and the main Community office inside. It is situated on the Kenan quad and is the central hub for the community. McIver and Alderman are also located on the quad and offer co-ed housing amongst the three floors. Spencer Hall is located across the street from the Kenan quad, bordering the Coker Arboretum; in fact, Spencer is the only residence hall that resides on Franklin Street. The location of Kenan Community offers students a full range of cultural and educational opportunities by providing close proximity to academic buildings, libraries, Battle Park, Playmakers Theatre, the Coker Arboretum, Franklin Street, and more.
