New Residence Hall Is Named

Posted October 19, 2007

It was announced on October 19, 2007, that Covenant College's newly opened residence hall has been named The Lowell and Nadine Andreas Residence Hall.

Mr. Lowell Andreas, along with his late wife, Nadine, has been one of the most significant supporters of Covenant College.

Lowell first learned of Covenant from former President Frank Brock, now president of the Covenant College Foundation. Upon discovering that Covenant is a college in the Reformed tradition with a rigorous academic program that equips students as logical, principled, and thoughtful individuals, Lowell invested generously.

His gifts -- and the gifts of so many Covenant College supporters -- enable the College to advance its mission by investing in turn in the lives of students.

Andreas Hall opened this fall and now houses over 100 student residents. The building is four stories, and rooms are arranged in double room suites, with four students sharing a bathroom. Lounges are located at the north and south ends of each hall, complete with kitchenettes and comfortable furniture for hall gatherings.

A large fourth-floor balcony boasts a beautiful view of the southern vista. The first floor features gathering spaces, a full kitchen, computer lab, laundry facilities, and a coffee shop. The mountain stone that is a notable feature of the building's exterior and first floor links the hall with other landmark buildings on campus. Wireless Internet access is available throughout the residence hall.

We give thanks to God for the generous support of our friends Lowell and Nadine Andreas.
