Ivy Neighborhood

The Ivy Neighborhood houses are some of the oldest houses on Smith’s campus, dating from as far back as 1878. The sense of pride that comes from knowing that half of the Ivy houses are near classroom buildings, the gymnasium, the athletic fields and scenic Paradise Pond, while the other half are only a short walk from downtown Northampton. With age comes history and tradition. Porch swings and cozy living rooms make these houses a place that many students call home for their entire four years at Smith.

Area Director

Area directors are residence life professional staff members responsible for the management of a residential neighborhood. Area directors are here to support students in their neighborhood at every level—they supervise the student staff members of each house, they’re available for individual students to talk to about any problems they may be facing, and are a general resource to house communities within the neighborhood.

Stop by and say hello—get to know your area director!
