About Beck Hall

Renovated in 2010, Beck Hall is a three-story structure that houses the Health and Wellness Center and the Counseling Center on the first floor and traditional residential living on the second and third floor. The residential area houses 140 students and is co-ed by wing. There is one Community Assistant per wing (two per floor). Additional rooms off the lobby include study rooms, computer lab, recreation room with a kitchen, as well as large TV lounge located on the 3rd floor. The lobby area also contains the front desk and mailboxes for students.

The building is dedicated in honor of Bright W. Beck, a 1907 graduate of Keystone State Normal School. He was chair of the social studies department at KSNS and Kutztown State Teachers College. He later became dean of men at the school, retiring in 1951. He passed away in 1970.
