Large and lively, Clara Dickson Hall is a Colonial-style building centrally located on north campus whose brick walls just manage to contain all that goes on within them. The staff prides itself on helping students learn their way in a new place. Their familiarity not only with Cornell but also with the surrounding communities' many resources is a boon to incoming residents. Recent renovations created beautiful new community lounges on each floor. There also are sand volleyball courts right outside the door.

Dickson Hall also is home to the Multicultural Living Learning Unit, one of Cornell's residential program houses.
