Community Spaces

From dorm common rooms, to the quad, to our wonderful outdoor spaces, at Tilton, being together is a big deal. Below are just some of our favorite places to spend time as a community.

• Knowles Lobby – Located on the first floor of historic Knowles Hall, this has been a hub for hangouts, study sessions, and the like for generations of Tilton students. 
• The Masiello Family Terrace – Newly renovated in the summer of 2021, the brand new Masiello Family Terrace at the Charles E. Tilton Mansion is the perfect backdrop for formal occasions (like pre-Prom photos), meetings, and much more.
• The Hamilton Family Pavilion – Another summer of 2021 addition, the Hamilton Family Pavilion brings a true gathering space to the Back-40, just the right size for BBQs, morning yoga, or even an outdoor science class.
• The MARC – In addition to being the center of our athletics program, the Memorial Athletic and Recreation Center (MARC) is the place to go for a pick-up basketball game, a quick bite at Rusty’s Den (our campus snack bar), or to get your fill of action on the ping-pong tables.
• The Residential Quad – Perfectly in the center of Pfeiffer, Moore, and Beaumont, the residential quad is where we set up our fire pits, our volleyball nets, and our cornhole boards.
• The Head of School House – Decked out with historic photos and keepsakes, the Head of School House (HOSH) is a place for student organizations and clubs to meet, movie nights, and faculty and staff to relax and catch up.
