  • Presby Hall Fitness Center We're happy to announce we've received 4 elliptical trainers and 4 treadmills for our fitness center. And, instead of waiting for the facility to be 100% complete, we've opened it up now so all of you elliptical and treadmill enthusiasts can get ready to sweat! (Just be warned: no TVs are installed yet, so bring your iPod if you need an "entertainment distraction.")

    The fitness center is located just up the ramp from the second-floor stairwell landing.

      The facility's hours are as follows:
    • Weekdays: 7:30 a.m. — 11:00 p.m.
    • Weekends: 9:00 a.m. — 11:00 p.m.

      Please adhere to the following rules when using the fitness center:
    • Presby Hall residents only; no guests allowed.
    • For music playing, please use headphones.
    • Please wear appropriate workout attire.
    • Always wipe down equipment after use.

    And please note that the fitness center is not supervised. Presby Hall and the McKinley Foundation are not responsible for injuries or other negative consequences resulting from use or misuse of the equipment at this fitness center. If you are unsure of how to use any of the equipment, please seek assistance. Always use caution.

    We hope you all check out the new facility soon after it opens and enjoy it often.

  • Roommate agreement
    Here at Presby Hall we realize that the transition from the comfort of your own home to the dorm life can be difficult. Often times you will be put in situations that challenge your established habits and perceptions. You will be asked to remain open, and expose yourself to new ideas and ways of life. We would like to think of ourselves as a conscious college community. This is why we highly encourage all roommates to be respectful of one another. We care about each of our residents and hope that they get the most out of their stay at Presby Hall. Please complete this Roommate Agreement and give it great thought and know that it constitutes as a contractual agreement between roommates. Thank you.
