Rauch Memorial Hall
Rauch Memorial Hall was named by board member Elizabeth Rauch in honor of her family.
Located on the horizon side of campus, Rauch Memorial is home to 199 male and female sophomores, juniors and seniors spread out among the four floors from a variety of majors, sports, and cultural backgrounds. The rooms are a made-up of two-person bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom in between two rooms. Rauch Memorial Hall has stairs and a fully-functional elevator to transport students to upper floors. The first and third floors are designated for female students and the second and fourth floors are designated for male students. Each resident of Lindenwood University in Rauch is provided with an extra-long twin bed frame, mattress, three-drawer dresser, desk, chair and closet.
On the main floor of Rauch Memorial, there is a comfortable lounge furnished with couches, tables, chairs, a microwave, and a TV, perfect for dining or studying. In addition to the lounge, there is also a laundry facility on the first floor. Students are allowed to have mini-fridges in their rooms and one microwave per room (700 watts or less). Any additional furniture a resident wishes to bring into their room that compromises the shared space between roommates must be approved by the Residential Community Coordinator of Rauch Memorial Hall.
Rauch is complete with all the modern amenities such as air conditioning, new Wi-Fi, and has several handicap accessible certified rooms.
Rauch Memorial is conveniently located near Spellmann Campus Center, the fitness center, the field house, Harlen C. Hunter Stadium, J. Scheidegger Center for the Arts, Robert F. Hyland Arena, Evans Commons, and Lindenwood Track. We hope this kind of environment sounds exciting to you and we look forward to having you as part of our community soon!

Guests must abide to all state, local and University policies. Residents are responsible for their guest(s) and their behavior. We require that students respect one another’s right to sleep, study, and be comfortable in their space. While the residents of each room determine the hours and terms upon which they will entertain guests, Overnight guests may not stay for a period longer than three consecutive days without specific permission from the Director of Residential Life and a maximum of 10 nights (total) for the semester, with approval from all roommates. Guests under the age of 18 are not permitted within the residence without specific permission from the Director of Residential Life.
Residential Life reserves the right to restrict students’ guest privileges at its discretion should individual issues emerge.
Residents are responsible for both their non-Lindenwood guest(s) and their commuter guest(s) regardless of the amount of time the guest is visiting. This means that the resident must inform their guest of all Residential Life and Lindenwood University policies and if the guest does not abide by them the resident may be held responsible for the guest’s actions. The guest may not be left unaccompanied; the host must be present at all times. In addition, if a guest violates policy, they may be banned from campus residential spaces and/or Lindenwood University. Commuters found in violation/present during university policies being broken will be referred to the Office of Student Conduct
