Thanks to a generous gift from Trustee Fred Anderson ’66 and Marilyn Anderson, all Whittier College residence halls will be air-conditioned beginning this fall. 💜💛

The investment will bring high-efficiency AC upgrades to Ball, Johnson and Stauffer Halls — enhancing wellbeing and the first-year residential experience for future Poets.

This meaningful enhancement reflects Whittier’s continued commitment to creating supportive living and learning environments where students can thrive academically, socially and personally.
