Accommodations - Santa Fe

During the summer conference season, guests are housed in one of three separate residential areas on campus: the upper dorm area, the lower dorm area, and the suites and apartments. Situated on either side of the main campus, the 16 territorial-style dormitories in the upper and lower dorm areas provide a combination of single- and double-occupancy rooms. Dorms are small and intimate with two floors per building, housing 10 to 20 guest residents with one bathroom per floor. Most single dorm rooms are located in the lower dorm area, while the upper dorm area contains mostly double dorm rooms.

Dormitory rooms are comfortably furnished with beds, desks, bookshelves and built-in dressing units. Balconies, common rooms and landscaped courtyards provide additional meeting and living space. Each bedroom has its own phone for free local and incoming calls; long distance calls may be made with a calling or credit card. Each room also has an ethernet port. Laundry facilities are located throughout campus for the convenience of residential guests. Linen is provided.

Just beyond the upper dorm area are eight spacious suites, each with five single bedrooms for a total of 40 rooms. The suites are carpeted, have a common living room, large bathroom, and open onto lovely courtyards. Each bedroom has the same furnishings as the dorm rooms as well as a phone. The living room in each suite is cozily furnished with a couch, chairs, tables, and lamps. While affording plenty of privacy, the suites are especially conducive to developing friendly relationships among conference participants.

For additional privacy, the college has ten two-bedroom apartments at the uppermost end of campus. These are also carpeted, fully furnished, and contain a full kitchen and private bath. Five apartments have one double bed and one twin bed, and the other five have two twin beds (one per bedroom). Courtyards and mountain views make these accommodations a particularly relaxing sanctuary from a busy conference day full of meetings.

Residential conferences have the option of full or partial board plans, with a required minimum of one meal per day, usually breakfast. Participants are welcome to pay cash in the dining hall or coffee shop for meals not included in a partial board plan. Guests dine in the college dining hall, which has a seating capacity of 350. To meet the special needs of individual groups and meeting schedules, the college provides an on-campus catering service as well as a full-service coffee shop.
