Whittier
College’s facilities are available for conferences and
other special events, ranging from a conference for 200 to
a sports camp. The campus houses 28
academic and administrative facilities and seven residence
halls. The campus is 18 miles southeast of Los Angeles,
and Whittier offers small-town charm along with many of
the amenities of a metropolitan community.
The spectrum of
meeting room options at Whittier is a wide one. We have
everything from residence hall lounges and classrooms for
small groups to the 400-seat Robinson Theatre in the Ruth
B. Shannon Center for the Performing Arts. The Studio
Theatre seats 75 comfortably and the Faculty Center seats
200. |

The residence halls at Whittier offer many accommodation
options, and staff can work with you to meet your specific
requirements. We offer double rooms with community bath
facilities, large lounges, fireplaces, pool tables, vending
machines and coin-operated washers and dryers. Pillows are
provided, and linen service is available for a small fee if
desired. |

Whittier’s dining facilities allow for cafeteria- to
banquet-style settings in our Campus Inn as well as a casual,
youthful atmosphere in The Spot. Bon Appetit, our catering
service, was awarded the prestigious IVY Award by Restaurants
and Institutions Magazine as Restauranteur of Distinction.
Whittier works with you to provide creative theme meals,
banquets, picnics, barbecues, formal dinners and international
menus. |
