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. 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. She died on February 8, 1963.
