Cary Quadrangle

Cary Quadrangle is one of Purdue University's historic all-male residence halls, offering a unique blend of tradition and modern comfort. While Cary is the oldest hall on campus, its four outer buildings—West, Northwest, Northeast, and East—were fully renovated in 2007. These updates introduced air-conditioned double-suite-style rooms, where two rooms share a private connecting bathroom. 

The South building preserves its original layout, providing a variety of non-air-conditioned room types, including singles, doubles, triples, and quads. These rooms feature community-style restrooms located throughout each floor, fostering a classic residence hall experience. 

University Residences Alumni & Guest Center 

Cary Quadrangle hosts the University Residences Alumni & Guest Center (URGC). This center is home to all University Residences alumni and prospective student programming and tours.
