For students looking to forge close connections around shared interests, Haverford offers special interest housing choices, such as La Casa Hispánica (for those attuned to the culture of the Spanish-speaking world); Cadbury House (quiet study, and alcohol and drug-free); and the Ira De A. Reid House (devoted to extending the legacy of Reid, a renowned sociologist and Haverford’s first tenured African American faculty member).

In 1972, Whitall Hall was torn down to improve the view of (and from) the newly built Dining Center. The spot is now a busy crossroads on campus, especially at meal times.
