Moore Hall is a co-ed residence hall at Kansas State University, Kansas, United States. It is located on the East side of Kansas State's Manhattan, Kansas campus in the North-West corner of the Derby Complex, north of West Hall and west of Haymaker Hall. It is known for its Leadership Studies and Business cluster floors. ^[1] After the end of the Spring semester, students typically move out of the halls, but Moore provides residency for year-round students along with Haymaker Hall. Some return to live there another year while others move on to live off-campus or in fraternities and sororities.

History

The building opened in 1967, named after Helen Moore.^[2] Moore was Dean of Women at Kansas State University from 1940 until 1957, when she retired as an administrator but remained active on the Kansas State faculty as a professor of mathematics.^[3] She died on February 8, 1963.^[4]
