Grace Hopper College, Residential college at Yale University in New Haven, US.
Grace Hopper College is a residential college at Yale University that houses students across multiple floors with shared community spaces. The building includes seminar rooms, a library, a dining hall, and fitness facilities in the basement level.
The college was founded in 1933 as Calhoun College and renamed in 2017 to honor computer scientist Grace Murray Hopper. This change reflected a broader institutional reassessment of values and legacy.
The college hosts regular gatherings where students participate in traditions and social events that define campus life. These occasions bring the residential community together throughout the academic year.
The college is located in the heart of Yale's campus and is easily accessible on foot from main campus areas. Visitors should explore the public areas and entryways during normal hours while respecting the private residential spaces on upper floors.
Hidden beneath the main building is an underground extension that houses a cafe, performance space, and recreation areas. This concealed level provides students with additional spaces for socializing and entertainment beyond what is visible at street level.
