Centennial Dorm Tour | UMN

Centennial Residence Hall at the University of Minnesota is one of the larger dorms on Super Block. It has many great facilities like the Gopher Hole: a study space in the basement with many different sections of studying and hangout zones, the C Store: a convenience store, often open late at night with options of GopherGold and Flex Dine to be used as payments, and a huge dining hall (that may or or many not be disappearing next year). In this video I show you around three different rooms types that can be found in Centennial; a double, a single, and an expanded single.
I hope this video gives you a better idea of what your room could look like next year as well as some insight to the facilities at Centennial!
Leave comments with dorm recommendations for me to film next!

I had a single in Centennial 40 years ago and it looks just the same. I mean that in a good way. My grandfather built me bookcases especially to fit in the quirky shaped room I got, still have them. I loved Centennial. Good luck to all the Centennial students this year, I hope somehow you have as good an experience there as I did many years ago.

[@katiemeenan5938]

These are so awesome! I'll be a freshman in the fall- would you be able to film 17th?

[@jennahougen1067]

I'm glad you enjoyed! I'm hoping to get a tour of 17th soon!

I was lucky and had a double as a single, which I don’t understand since there was a shortage! And I was a freshman at that time! (Late 90s)

[@DEADRATCVLT]

do you remember your room number or position by any chance? i got a single at centennial late cuz of a housing accommodation for me from the DRC for a single and i got an interesting looking weirdo corner room in centen that seems to have a little door walkway (or whatever the little hallway leading from a room to a door is called) that the other singles dont seem to have and im excited to get a look at it! wondering if its an expanded single or smn 0,0

Do you know where the kitchen is located? and is there a laundry room on every floor?

[@bo-chengwei2509]

The kitchen is right by the lobby. There are small laundry rooms on each floor, and a big one in the basement.

[@sashaschwarz381]

is the shared bathroom clean? And, is there an AC?

[@jennahougen1067]

The bathrooms are pretty clean or at least get cleaned daily. I think some of the dorms have AC but I don't know about Centennial in particular. You could call them and ask.

Do you have to have a roommate or can you be alone?
