Pennsylvania Avenue Residence Halls (PAR)

Pennsylvania Avenue Residence Halls (Babcock, Carr, Blaisdell and Saunders) are diverse, close-knit communities that offer in-hall dining and the Intersections and Global Crossroads Living-Learning Communities. PAR is across the street from Illini Grove, one of the most peaceful nature spots on campus, and it’s a short walk from the basketball courts, sand volleyball courts, tennis courts, soccer fields, the Arboretum and the charming neighborhoods of Urbana.
