Opened in 2006, New Hall is centrally located, in close proximity to Thomas Library, in addition to the student center. New Hall is co-ed and houses a Ubuntu Themed Living Community. Students enjoy the flexibility of various meeting spaces and room sizes, the connectedness of the community, and convenience in an air-conditioned space.
Built in 1977, the building was named after Joseph C. Shouvlin, who was a former president of the Baur Brothers Company (a manufacturing company) in Springfield. He worked with President Stoughton to create a center not only for student's academic success, but also for adult success in the workplace.
The Benham-Pence Student Center is located along Alumni Way, next to New Residence Hall, at the corner of Ward Street and Fountain Avenue. The student center is attached to the Joseph P. Shouvlin Center for Lifelong Learning, and both are served by a large parking lot with convenient access on to Ward Street.
Hamma thrived on campus as one of the premier Lutheran theological seminaries until 1978 when it merged with Capital University's Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Columbus, Ohio. After Hamma relocated, Synod served as the location for the humanities on campus prior to the construction of Hollenbeck Hall.
