HOUSING - CHASE HOUSE

An exciting new housing option is taking place in Chase House for the 2010-2011 academic year - a substance free living floor. We have had requests from students who would like the opportunity to live in substance free housing.

Chase hse smaller

Originally built in 1827, Chase House was occupied by several prominent local families until established as a school for girls by Mary A. Burnham in the 1870s. The Burnham school was incorporated into the college as a campus house in 1968 and named for Mary Ellen Chase, an accomplished writer and Professor of English Literature at Smith.

Weekly film/video nights are popular as a great way to take a study break. Chase also has two Area Coordinator offices in the basement of the building.
