Dillon Hall

Dillon Hall is one of the 29 Residence Halls on the campus of the University of Notre Dame and one of the 15 male dorms. Dillon is located directly west of Alumni Hall and is directly adjacent to South Dining Hall on the west. Dillon has space for 334 undergraduate students. Dillon Hall is the largest Dormitory on the University of Notre Dame campus, with roughly 334 residents. Named after Fr. Patrick Dillon, CSC, the Hall was completed in 1931. Dillon's chapel is dedicated to Knute Rockne's patron saint, St. Olaf. The dormitory was built with the proceeds, $52,000, from the 1925 Rose Bowl. Dillon Hall is known as "The Big Red," and few know from where the name comes. In fact, the dorm moniker used to be "the Big D," but when this title began to take on less-than-desirable connotations, the name was changed to "The Big Red," after the dorm's official color. Dillon's main rival in Recsports events has always been Alumni Hall, situated directly next door to Dillon. The Pinnacle of this rivalry is in mid Fall when both dorms sponsor Rivalry Week, a multievent competition to see which dorm is better.

  • Maria Ly is quite literally a Rock Star. You’ll often find her hanging off a 5.13a grade rock climbing route, she is the rock star co-founder of Skimble (which is incubated by Rock Health), and you can find her rock formation photography featured in Outside Magazine.

  • March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.

  • Mayank is an inventor and zebra-enthusiast. He developed Stripespotter, a biological barcode scanner for zebras, and is a part of the team behind Facebook insights. By way of India to Oman to the US, Mayank can be found behind the wheel of a red Porsche dreaming up his next big idea.
