All campus meals are served in the Wheelock Student Center cafeteria / dining rooms. The staff provides a wide variety of delicious food items for our students to pick from.

Residents: If you have registered to live on campus for the weekend, your room keys will get you into the dining room for meals from Friday’s dinner through Sunday’s breakfast.
Commuters: If you will be commuting daily, you will receive a lanyard with a meal card on it. These must be returned to the kitchen after you get your dinner Saturday night.
Attendees to the Arrangers Workshop will find individual meal tickets in with your name badge.

Students do have a choice whether to stay off campus or to stay as residents on the University of Puget Sound campus in a dorm.
Our registration fees are based on the typing of housing selected on the registration form - $225 for the standard dorm room with no linens, or you can spend $295 for the upgraded rooms with linens.

Resident students and faculty will be staying in the student dorms again this year. Don’t forget the dorm halls are CO-ED. Dress appropriately for your trip down the hall!

Residents will want to plan to bring their own bedding. The dorm bed are extra long twins. Some students bring sleeping bags, and other bring their own sheets, blankets, pillows, towels, and a wash cloth - along with shampoo and soap. HCNW is in June, so watch the weather and plan accordingly. An extra blanket or light jacket is always nice.

Every year, the University assigns which dorms we get to use for the HCNW weekend (we do not get a choice). If you'd like to see what dorm living is like on the campus, here's a link to the university's dorm information. UPS DORMS

Walking on Campus

The University of Puget Sound campus is located in Tacoma on gentle rolling hills. The walkways are wide (as you can see) and during the weekend, HCNW signs mark the routes to classes. HCNW's schedule is built with 15 minutes for walking time between classes. Most of our students enjoy walking to classes over the weekend. There are also nice places throughout the campus to sit and visit.

HCNW also rents three golf carts for the weekend. Carts are intended for faculty first but students may use them when space is available. If your ambulatory challenges would make walking difficult, we encourage you to brainstorm your own solution so you will not be solely dependent upon the golf carts.
