Situated on the
Southwest corner of the
Texas Tech University campus, the Hulen/Clement Residence Hall houses more than 700 Texas Tech
students.
Composed of six floors,
divided in half by a
dining hall with
males living in one
half (Clement) and
females living in the other half (Hulen), this
residence hall is one of the the most
popular on campus.
The floors are
arranged in this manner, with Hulen and Clement being direct
mirrors of each other, and the dining hall and
lobby dividing the two halves.
The first four floors have two
wings,
designated "
long" and "
short." This is because the "short" hall has
fewer rooms than the "long" halls. Due to
mail rooms and
study lounges located on the first and second floors,
respectively, the short halls on those floors have even fewer
rooms than their 3rd-6th floor
counterparts. "First Short" has only 10 rooms, while "Second Short" has 15. The
remaining short halls have 20 rooms each, while every long hall has 25 rooms.
The fifth and sixth floors are
devoid of "long" wings, each having only a "short" wing consisting of 20 rooms. These halls are
situated directly above the other short halls, making the short wing of the
building two
stories taller.
The
dining facilities are the most
popular buffet-
style facilities on campus. It is the
general concensus of the
students that Hulen/Clement has the highest
quality food of all the buffet-style
dining halls on campus.
