Building History

Worcester County is the easternmost county of the U.S. state of Maryland. It is the only county of Maryland that borders the Atlantic Ocean, and the only county bordering both Delaware and Virginia. It is home to the popular vacation resort area of Ocean City, founded 1875, as well as wild habitats on the primitive wilderness areas on Assateague Island and in the Pocomoke River and Swamp.

Worcester Hall is a four-story, coed, traditional style building that accommodates approximately 166 residents. All rooms are comprised of singles and doubles. Most academic buildings and libraries are less than a 5-minute walk away.

Building Services

Housekeeping Service Hours:

Weekdays: Services run from Monday to Friday, starting at 7:30 a.m. and ending by mid-afternoon. We minimize disruption to residents' routines.
Weekends: Reduced service with restrooms and lounges cleaned once on Saturdays. No regular services on Sundays, which is a day off for our staff.
Emergency Services: Our team remains on call at all times. Available 24/7 through our Service Center at 301-314-9675.

Trash Removal

Residents are required to take their trash to the dumpsters outside their buildings. Housekeeping handles trash and recycling removal from lobbies, lounges, laundry rooms, and common bathrooms twice a day, ensuring clean and welcoming common areas.

HVAC System

Non Air-Conditioned Building

Worcester Hall’s heating system is activated when the campus transitions to heat, typically in October, based on the forecasted weather. Heat is usually turned off to the building in April when the campus transitions to cooling mode. Each room has a convector that circulates warm air from heated water running through the building’s pipes. While residents cannot adjust the temperature or fan speed, supply temperatures are monitored daily by Residential Facilities maintenance staff to ensure comfort.
