The Brown Complex located on Campus houses between 180-250 students in 14 individual houses containing 6 suites in each. Each of the houses have a community area with a sink, microwave, table and four chairs, couch, and lounge chair. Crowder also provides a color television with satellite TV and a local use telephone in the commons area. Each carpeted suite has two or three bunkable beds, two closets with individual locks, five drawers for storage, and two desks with a chair. It is possible hook up both phone and satellite service in the individual suites if students wish to pay for these services. The Dorms have wireless internet access plus there are two com ports for access to the internet provided by Crowder College. Another service provided for students residing on campus is a free semester membership at the Freeman Family YMCA located on the Crowder College campus.

Living in the complex makes it easy to make new friends, attend study sessions, sporting events and other activities on campus. Plus there is always someone to talk to or borrow a movie from! It’s also convenient to get up at 7:55 am, slip on some shoes, and still make it to your 8 am class before the instructor shuts the door!

Living on Campus is Affordable

Living in the dorms is very affordable. The cost per semester (as of the Fall 2010 semester) is as follows:

Double occupancy = $766/semester + $1234/board = $2000/semester
Triple Occupancy = $566/semester + $1234/board = $1800/semester

This includes a 19 meal plan for a double occupancy room. As demand for housing continues to grow students may be placed in triple occupancy rooms. If triple occupancy is required a reduced rate for board will be given. For more information contact our Campus Life/Housing Office at (417)455-5644 or e-mail: campuslife@crowder.edu
