Whitby Hall is more than just a residence hall — in addition to housing slightly over 50 students, Whitby houses the English, Spanish, French, Nursing, History and Theology departments, as well as faculty offices — meaning going to class could be as simple as going down a flight of stairs.

The top floor of the building is used for student housing. Each room has large windows with great views of the campus and the Minneapolis skyline, beautiful woodwork and high ceilings. The residential floor has a full kitchen, multiple bathrooms and a large social lounge with TV. Whitby also has a computer lab just for resident students.

Whitby is located in the northwest region of campus, close to academic buildings and Coeur de Catherine.
