Community Housing

For students looking to forge close connections around shared interests, Haverford offers special interest housing choices, such as La Casa Hispánica (for students actively engaged in organizing programs concerned with the cultures and civilizations of the Spanish-speaking world); Cadbury House (quiet study, and alcohol and drug-free); and Nerd House (gaming, tech, fantasy, anime, and science aficionados).
