Housing
CWC’s Housing and Residential Life Programs (HRLP) exist to extend and amplify the educational impact of the college through living environments and residential communities that foster learning and student development in the broadest sense. In our facilities and programs, CWC provides spaces and opportunities that invite exploration, cultivate student potential, and equip residents for productive, satisfying, and well-rounded lives.
On-campus housing facilities consist of dormitories and apartments, which are under the direction of the Director of Residential and Student Life. CWC places a high priority on safety. In the evenings and on weekends, Campus Safety Officers and Resident Assistants remain on duty, providing coverage of each building. All Housing facilities also include fire-suppression sprinkler systems.
Mote Hall
Mote Hall, the newest student residential complex, is a fully ADA-accessible, suite-style, 48-bed co-ed dormitory that is divided into four areas. Each area houses 12 students and offers substantial privacy, as there is one student per bedroom. Every three residents share a full-bathroom, but each bedroom has its own sink. A furnished central day room provides a place for students in each area to watch television, talk, relax and study.
For the safety and convenience of residents, Mote Hall is equipped with keyless entry to the building, laundry facilities, and a computer lab. Each bedroom is furnished with a bed, desk, chair and dresser. In-room access to the Local Area Network (Wi-Fi) is available to students. Internet and all utilities are included in the cost of rent.
Additionally, Mote Hall offers a large commons area, which serves as a hub for housing activities and a place for residents to relax and watch television or play Ping Pong, Foosball, or Pool.
As there are no kitchen facilities in Mote Hall, residents are required to participate in the declining balance Meal Plan A or Meal Plan B, which gives students the flexibility to budget their semester food purchases in the Food Court.
Resident Assistants (RAs) assist the Director of Residential and Student Life in matters of administration, discipline, personal help, activities, and supervision in the complex.
Residence Hall
Residence Hall, a 48-bed co-ed complex, designed with a keyless entry system into the building and divided into four areas, is the most inexpensive way for single students to live on campus.

A furnished central lounge provides a place for students in each area to watch television, talk, relax and study. Laundry facilities are available within the complex. Each bedroom is furnished with two beds, an end table, and two built-in closets/dressers/desks. Each room also offers access (Wi-Fi) to the Local Area Network.

The bunkhouse is designed with a key-less entry system on all doors and has 12 two-person rooms. Each room has two beds, two desks, a trashcan, a wardrobe-style closet, mini-fridge and a dresser.
