Cedar West Hall

Cedar West Hall opened in August of 2017. The students who live in this building will have the opportunity to help name the houses, start traditions, and establish brand new communities. As students make an impact on the communities, this page will evolve to feature information about the government, traditions, and activities.

Cedar West Residents

Meet some of the first residents of Cedar West Hall!

Easton Arsineau

I am a junior in the nursing program. I am from Menominee, Michigan. I am most excited to live in The Woods because not only do I get to have my own room, but I get to be the first of something on campus. I'm also excited to bring some great ideas to the hall to make the first year its most memorable.

I am from Big Rapids, MI. I am a sophomore majoring in Theatre. I love living on campus because you are living around so many other students that are just like you. It's cool to connect and grow closer in your house and hall. I chose to live in The Woods because I wanted to have the experience of living in the new dorms first. They are super nice and different from the others which I think will attract some really cool people! I look forward to getting involved in my house and hall as well as meeting new people!
