Residential Life

Haverford is a residential college, and more than 98% of our students live in campus housing. Most living arrangements are coed, and residence halls offer a wide variety of accommodations from 4-person apartments to suites and singles.

Cool Classes: Philadelphia Freedoms: Cultural Landscapes and Civic Ideals

The writing seminar “Philadelphia Freedoms: Cultural Landscapes and Civic Ideals” explores the history of the city in order to trace how its founding principles have manifested themselves in the lived experiences of its residents over many generations.

Our Cool Classes blog series highlights interesting, unusual, and unique courses that enrich the Haverford College experience.

The class includes a critical archival project in cooperation with local arts/social justice organizations such as RAIR (Recycled Artist in Residency) and a visit to RAIR's Revolution Recovery space. Photo: Caleb Eckert '17.

Beehives on Campus

The campus has four honeybee hives near the retention pond behind HaverFarm. The Haverford BeeKeeping Club, formed by Alanna Matteson '15 and Dana Ducombe '17 in 2015, proposed the hives as part of a larger national effort to restore the U.S. honeybee population.
