Bachelor Hall

Bachelor Hall is a three-story brick academic building on Miami University's campus located at the intersection of Patterson Avenue and Route 73. The structure contains computer laboratories, lecture halls, and a Speech and Hearing Clinic accessible through multiple entrances.

The building was completed in 1978 and named after Joseph M. Bachelor, a Miami University graduate from 1911 who went on to earn degrees from Harvard University. His connection to the institution helped establish this structure as a significant academic facility on campus.

The building houses multiple academic departments that work side by side, including Mathematics, English, Communications, and Theatre. This arrangement encourages students from different fields to interact and share knowledge in shared spaces.

The building offers multiple entrances equipped with accessibility features to help all visitors navigate easily. Plan your visit during quieter times on campus if you want to walk around without interrupting classes or running into large groups of students.

Bachelor Hall's namesake donated his 400-acre farm to Miami University, which operates today as the Joseph M. Bachelor Wild Life and Game Preserve. This protected land stands as a tangible reminder of his lasting commitment to the university beyond his graduation.
