RESIDENCE HALLS Sacramento State utilizes six residence hall complexes to house students. American River Courtyard, the newest - completed in 2009, houses upperclassmen in apartment style dorms while Sutter Hall, Sierra Hall, Draper Hall, Jenkins Hall and Desmond Hall feature traditional style dorms for freshmen. All of the residence halls are located on the north edge of campus along the American River, with three buildings on each side of the dining commons. Living on campus can have a significant impact on academic success and personal growth. The Residence Halls are not only comfortable and convenient, but they also offer ample opportunities to make new and lasting friendships and to be involved with floor, hall, and campus-wide activities. Residence halls are staffed by live-in professionals and trained student Resident Advisors. Staff help organize a variety of programs and social activities, and serve as a source of campus information.
