About Traditional-Style Living at UIU
Garbee Hall is a traditional-style residence hall at Upper Iowa University, primarily serving first-year students. Centrally located near academic buildings and campus amenities, it offers double-occupancy rooms, shared bathrooms, and common areas designed for studying and socializing. Residents enjoy easy access to dining facilities, student support services, and regular residence life programming focused on engagement, wellness, and academic success.
The residential spaces are located in the North Tower, which spans 2 ½ floors. Men reside on the first and third floors, while women live on the second. Each floor is supported by a dedicated Resident Assistant, helping to create a safe, welcoming environment that fosters community and connection among students.
