BCHS is hopeful that all residents will have pleasant roommate experiences. We recommend that you set boundaries with in the first couple of days of moving into the room- even if you already knew your roommate. The next step would be to communicate any issues or annoyances as they arise. Waiting or ignoring issues can create additional problems, which often make reconciliation unattainable.

The sizes of rooms are all the same. The living area of each room is roughly 9’x12’. The closet, desk area, some usable balcony space (for inside balconies, and private bathroom (with a full tub) increase the room size a bit. {Click here for pictures}

Sorry, no cable in the rooms. Cable service is offered in the Residence Hall TV Lounge (room 302). The room has a large screen TV with basic cable channels. TVs are also located in the Student Activities Center (with satellite TV in the Annex) and in the Fitness Center (with basic cable).

Yes. Each residence hall room has two internet connections separate from the telephone lines. You will need an ethernet card (and cable connections) to access the network. Both PCs and Macs are compatible with our network. For additional information, you can contact the Technology Staff at (901) 572-2598. Click Here to learn about BCHS's internet usage policy.

Each room is equipped with a telephone line and is assigned a voice mailbox through the campus system. Phones are available, but most residents tend to bring their own. An answering machine is unnecessary due to the campus's own voice mail system.

Students may request a private room on the application; however private rooms are not guaranteed and are awarded as space becomes available- with preference going to current residents.

At this time there is not one. We do encourage applicants to complete and return an application as soon as possible, as housing space is limited.
