University Housing Mementoes

As University Housing Services changes with new buildings being constructed and existed structures being decommissioned, we are proud to offer former residents a piece of history. Mementoes from our buildings are available for purchase and support the University Housing Services Student Employee Scholarship fund. If you have any questions about the mementoes, contact Dana Tuttle at (309) 438-8611.

Atkin/Colby and Hamilton/Whitten Residence Halls

Atkin/Colby (opened 1962) and Hamilton/Whitten (opened 1960) residence halls were decommisioned in fall of 2012 and will not be used in their capacity of serving as student housing or dining. The buildings may have another life to assist the campus in the short-term during renovation of academic/administrative building; this possibility is still being explored.

Mounted door knobs, mailbox doors, and room numbers are available for purchase. See the order form for photos of the items and additional information.
