 Good afternoon. I am Elliot and I am here at Walton Hall and welcome to our you our home live tour Like I said earlier We are at Walton Hall and this is an upperclassmen dorm a lot of the kids here also in fraternities or sororities They don't have houses just yet And so that's primarily the demographic that we're looking at but what I love about Walton is it's literally like the best part of Campus if you ask me you've got the Reynolds stadium right here. So that is that is the stadium right there Your neighbor across the street. Yep indeed and Wonderful tailgating sections and then the cool thing about Walton is it's actually split into two half dorms if you'll go with that We have Walton South over here and then Walton North is up the hill on this side So be sure you don't go to the wrong dorm whenever you're checking in Right, right and here in the neighborhood Let's see. We've also got the hyper Have you ever been there? We also have Barnhill arena, I think is what you're looking at right now. So any sort of volleyball games will be hosted there, right, right? Excellent Right down the street from fraternity row. Now. Have you have you visited here as a friend friends here anything a couple of times? A couple of my friends are already here So it's interesting to see you know how the the dorm life here is for the upperclassmen compared to for freshmen And you made that distinction in between North Walton and South Walton, I guess that's an important right distinction because you're gonna be in one area the other Exactly, so if you check into Walton, North and get to one South you might walk in on somebody You don't want to walk in on okay. Well, let's go ahead and slide. Do you ever know how many students are here? There are about a hundred and forty five students here. Okay right and I guess I'll point out stadium drive again. Just so you know this road in front of us is called stadium drive All right, so heading in We're headed towards the south But we're coming into the central area Yes, it is rather warm today. What does it say backwards? We get it. I had Walton Hall Darby Hall entrance. Okay Darby was the old dining hall. Darby was the old dining hall The cool thing is we'll stop right here. My favorite things to see The students here get to do all sorts of painting and stuff So like I said, there are a lot of Greek life students And so they make these huge banners just about every other week for whatever program or whatever event they're hosting And so these are all over the place. They're beautiful and it's just really cool to see all them kind of like Pouring back into the building. Yeah, it's so much school spirit And we love people unite behind their different fraternities and sororities and the larger razorback spirit on the whole Right. So before we go up to the front desk, we're gonna stop in This is one of the longer rooms that we have here I've seen three. There may be more hidden around in different corners. There are some sort of hidden areas in Walton, right there You could get lost. I did this now But this is a fairly standard laundry room. And so the cool thing is what we've done this last year Over this summer We've actually partnered with the company and they brought in brand new washes and dryers And the cool thing is you can actually scan these QR codes right here And that'll take you to their website where you can check to see if they're open or if anybody's using them right now And it also allows you to set notifications on your phone so that if you need to it'll say hey come change your laundry to the dryer Or hey, your stuff is done Very very nice And it doesn't cost anything to use the wash and dry. If you're an upperclassman, you're here You already know that but just so we can say that it's covered under your room fees No need to find all the quarters in your couch. Yeah, bring them. Okay, and there's three at least three Laundries throughout the Walton building If anybody has any questions feel free to ask we're happy to Answer them as they come in now. Let's point out this but we don't want to go in because there's students in there And other people are using that space, right? But this is the entrance to Walton South or one of them and so Kind of the great divide everything past this side of the desk will be Walton North and this is Walton South So right in the center of the building right now. You say gotcha All right pass on through And here we are looking out towards the east side And what is that's the parking deck? Is that the student union parking? So union parking garage is right there Which is very handy because they do meal trades in the union every night past five p.m So you're in the perfect location. You're never too far away from food here Very nice for a college student. We've got the front desk area front desk So this is where your mail will be handled. Um, whatever mail or packages you get will be sent here Mr. Adam from Buchanan Drogh will be here to process everything and you'll pick it up here. Excellent. Okay So we're heading into one of the common areas. There's another really big common area in Walton South But then there's this one as well, right and it's pretty gigantic Let's see Lots of people can come hang out down here play ping-pong or have a conference Sure, and there's a study space that looks like in here We'll walk us in there. I would love to see you This is nice because you have your own printer set up in here So if you need any late night essays or anything like that you want to run out to let's say in the library Anything like that a print it's right here at your convenience and we also have whiteboards You need to see it to believe it Draw on it as much as you want. Now did you write that up there? I did not. That's your language though, right? What you a dealer finance major? I am. I am okay, but that wasn't me. That was another hooligan All right some other finance hooligan. That's right. Okay Great. Well, so let's um, let's now go out. I guess we're gonna take a look at the kitchen Oh, yeah, let's look at the kitchen, right And on our way there we can pass by the recycle mania trophy. That's right so what they do every year housing puts on this huge tournament called recycle mania where People all the dorms compete to see who's the best sustainability Champion and so as you can see a couple other dorms have made it the last couple of years But walton won it this last year and so it's kind of like one of the ongoing traditions that we have They started a hashtag called do it for jan and jan is uh jan gosnell, right is our Yeah, is our Is main isa in this area and she she was part of the rallying cry for it And they actually won this charging station Uh that has all the different dongles for the different charging things that you might want so good to know that that's there And uh jan let me know that they're going to be purchasing a set of pots and pans That we're going to be open for the residents. Uh, they're going to be mounted along the wall Oh here so that you don't need to check them out. You just need to come down Of course on the honor system and clean up after yourself, but new pots and pans as a result of recycle mania win as well Okay, great. Here we are in the kitchen right now Very nice kitchen has everything you can need for cooking. Um, let's say you get tired of cafeteria food And you decide you want you and your friends want to make something that night feel free just so long as you provide your own food And the big thing I always tell people is make sure you put your name on your stuff in the fridge Or else people will take it like my tubs of ice cream freshman year. Oh, yeah the good stuff With flavor, but you're vanilla. I'm a very plain kind of really another no old fashioned or french. Just straight up yarn elves vanilla Gotcha. All right, so let's keep moving along on the first floor here and we're going to go We're going to go down past the first. Oh, right. Okay That's why I need you here to keep me going straight So walton is not just a residential hall. It's also the home of the greek life council office Which is really cool. We'll take you by there real quick and then it's also home to the fadville food pantry Um, and so we're going to dip in there and talk to one of my friends And she's going to give us a little 15 seconds of fame spiel about it. That's fantastic and um stadium of course is also known as Fraternity rope I believe and so you have all of the different fraternities along this Along this way back outside we're about to pass by the The greek life leadership center is what they officially call it but any sort of greek life or Fraternity stuff goes on through here They handle the main stuff on campus and so it's always a fun time here But it's always nice to have somebody right downstairs that you can talk to about greek life. Sure And then if we keep going for all your greek life needs And then we're about to dip into the food pantry, which You know, I volunteered there Once with some of my fellow staff members and we had a blast. We really enjoyed just seeing what all they do here Um, yeah, yeah, they've actually had quite the uh the year this year I think this summer they've had the busiest summer they've ever had in their history. So Reaching a lot of people um and all of their needs across the fatal community And I don't uh, just I want to repeat what they're going to tell us But I'll say that one of the things that they do is if you're a student or staff member here, they'll feed you Yep, simple as that. I think up to twice a week or something like that. Yeah, let's see. So So this is the back side I think they could already tell that the architecture here lends itself to a little Going in and out to try to get different places. Yeah, it's uh, it's kind of amazed But we'll cut through the grass real quick. We will so this is the back way like we showed a little bit earlier This is the uh, the student parking garages that are currently working on. Okay And then right at the hill is the actual student union where you can meal trade every night Let's get a picture of the name there We'll see if they answer for us. Oh, I think they are going to Hey, how are you? I'm good. How are you guys just fine? We thought we might come in and just say hello for a second So people would know that within walton hall. We also have the full circle food pantry. Yes, our logo is right here. Yeah, take a Logo sure. Can you I wish yourself? So I am Liz Johnson. I am the full circle full circle food pantry intern for the summer in the fall I'll be the data coordinator So we were started in if you're a little bit history we're started in 2011 And the space was originally a kitchen. It is now expanded to that and it was donated It's really exciting on average. We feed about 300 300 people that includes families and all of our clients We do everything off a request form. Okay. You want to see that? Sure. Everything is id based and we serve anyone with universal id base would mean that you need to be a student or staff Yes, we serve anyone with university of Arkansas id. So that means grad students undergrads staff faculty maintenance workers all that kind What's the word house custodian, yes all of them right all of them. So when you want to take a real quick what we do We do everything with a three-day portioning guide. Okay. You want to get a video of that real quick? It's actually right here Sure. Sure. We have a soup. We have tuna Everything is for the most part. We do a lot of canned But everything is based off a three-day portioning guide and we do it off of the number of people in the family And our policies they come up to twice a week and during the school year We are open three days a week Mondays Wednesdays and Thursdays So I'll take you a real quick through here. Okay. Everything is kind of organized by category, which is really cool. Our volunteers are awesome They do a lot of that The next thing that we do is we focus on on expiration date. The big things we cannot give out anything that's expired Gotcha. We always check the expiration date and this would be you know for the students who are watching They're mostly incoming students. Okay. Yeah, they may if they need to have some food they could come here And yes twice a week they can get it All you have to do is show your university Arkansas ID. We do ask for a little bit of student demographics, but it's nothing I'm invasive or anything like that. It looks like you have a ton of great food here, but you're always looking for more food, right? So we can always take donations. Yes. We I actually have a magnet. I can show you real quick These are just kind of the These are kind of just the top list of the stuff that we go through the most we'll get that in there Hey, thank you so much for letting us take a quick tour by Awesome to meet you. Yeah, pleasure. What do you got? Oh, okay, fantastic. Thank you and our application goes online August night and it's for our semester. Did you tell us your hours?

So any horticulture kids or if you just really into gardening We have a garden application that has also go august 9th We're still working with some dates, but we're thinking about three days a week Fantastic garden and Maple Hill. It is the garden actually off of Happy Hollow. Okay. Awesome. Thank you so much. Thank you guys Ray we'll continue our tour of Walden Hall that nice little logo there. I love that All right So let's go see a room. All right. That sounds like a plan All right, but we're gonna go play the maze again Run through the maze, right? One of the cool things you'll see is there's plenty of scooter parking One of the best ways to get around campus up here is to have a scooter And so if you get a scooter pass and whatnot, you can park anywhere in this lot It's really nice just because it makes getting the class that much easier right and up at the top of the hill there That is the agricultural That's the admin building. Yeah admin building. Okay, just to give people a sense of where we are Okay There we go Okay, so let's head on down and see a room now That'll be great Okay, so we're headed this would be uh the north the north side, right? Okay, and we'll hop into this room right here. Sure Actually think about these rooms. Is there all I guess the jack and jill configuration So the way it works all these rooms are pretty much the same You'll walk in and so it has a built-in bed here with built-in furniture as well So all sorts of cabinetry and whatever you might need for storage. You may pull out these Nice deep shells and whatnot and then you can just lay this down. You have a built-in bed ready to go Go ahead and lay that down if you don't mind. All right. No, Walton north the mattresses are 84 inches They're uh super extra long twin In walton south the beds are 80 inches the mattresses are 80 inches So 84 inches would be that bad right there. Yeah Be careful because you might be stretching otherwise And this is just one person's room There's another one looks almost exactly like this. Let's see you get back here more closet space right here Nice built-in desk each room has its own personal uh thermostat built-in So if you like it cold you can have it cold. That's all good Um, and it's really cool because you get to like kind of make the room your home Which a lot of people really like yeah, and you see a lot of different ways people design their rooms I saw paintings all over the place and stuff like that. It's really cool to see how they how each person does their own individual thing Yeah, so we're going into the the bathroom area. Let's check out this. Let's check out the closet even more storage space Yeah There's that sure So the way it works is you have your own room, but you share a bathroom with the person next door But you have your own sink right looks like yeah, and then you have some more cabinetry here Lots of cabinetry actually So you're walking here and so This is a good bathroom the toilet and the shower Okay, we are great. Okay, and then you've got an area here So this is kind of a closet I guess right sit down just change a little bit Same thing with over here. You've got two of them Because this is an area where you can commonly store stuff But it's in the shared bathroom. All right, and if we go across here Again, just the same thing Same layout as before. Well, I guess the exact opposite There's the new cox box right there that you'll connect to fully hd tv All across campus Okay, well great. Well that gives us a good tour of one of the rooms in Walton, uh, are there any questions as long as we're answering questions here uh, either about walton or personal questions for elliott I'm gonna open the he's an open book. He says, okay And the the extra long mattresses in walton south Are included with the loftable bed So in walton the beds aren't built in they'll be loftable. Okay, so in north you can loft them I know it's south in north. I You're lucky to platform. Okay. Okay. Oh, gotcha. Okay. Well, won't you wave us out? Nice to see y'all kind of
