Welcome to Boland! Boland is a first year community that is unique and rewarding experience for all members of the Seton Hall community that have the opportunity to experience it. The community is built upon a strong foundation of servant leadership and respect; a community where excitement about the college experience runs high. I know this because this is my 4th year in Boland Hall. As a recent graduate of Seton Hall University and a member of the Boland Hall community I have witnessed and been a part of the Boland Hall experience for over 3 years. Boland Hall provides the right atmosphere for residents to grow and develop into prominent student leaders on campus. Whether it is through participation in programming offered by Resident Assistants or participating in Hall Council, there is always an avenue for students to get involved. Boland Hall is a safe place and a place where students can feel like they can be accepted and still be themselves. Boland is a community that I have come to treasure and I hope that you will enjoy it as much as I have. Welcome!

Welcome to the Boland Hall Community! Living in a Residence Hall for the first time will be an experience you cannot anticipate and surely one you will not soon forget. I, myself, am a recent college graduate and when I left for college in August 2000, I never thought I would consider my Residence Hall to be like a second home. In a few short weeks, however, I found what I hope you all will find here in your first semester: that a home resides wherever you create it. The Boland Hall Staff is committed towards making your first year experience here as best as possible. Consider Boland not only a place for you to live, but a place for you to laugh, to learn, and to make memories. Know that your presence here in this community is very welcomed. We hope you will join us in making Boland a safe, comfortable, and happy place that you can all call "home."
