Northern Montana College Girls Residence Hall, Listed!

Designed by architect Frank Bossuot, the Collegiate Gothic Northern Montana College Girls Residence Hall’s construction in Havre marked the college’s serious intent to provide quality higher education to Montana’s northern tier students.

The presence of Northern Montana College had a profound impact on the education of those northern and eastern Montana high school graduates who, after decades of little choice, now had the option to attend a school of higher education on the Hi-Line. The college and the Girls Residence Hall allowed an affordable and accessible option for residents of this sparsely populated area of Montana. Completed in 1936, the Girls Residence Hall was the first truly new building built on the Northern Montana College campus. The design and size of the building allowed a variety of uses that allowed the building to serve as the heart of the campus.
