Hamilton Hall is where many humanities classes, especially those in the Core Curriculum, are held. The building is named after famed Columbia dropout Alexander Hamilton, whose visage graces a smart statue out front.

Having a class on the upper reaches of the building sentences one to an excruciating stair climb or a long wait for a tiny elevator. Students, such as myself, have been known to select Lit Hum and CC classes solely on the basis of the least flights of stairs to climb.

Empty Hamilton rooms are open for studying in the evenings during finals.
