The original 康纳德大厅 (now Meske Hall) was built in 1934 and named for Helen C. Conard who was preceptress and teacher from 1899-1907. North and West wings were added to 康纳德大厅 in 1954 and 1961. The original 康纳德大厅 was partitioned in the 1980s for male residents, and was known as Sittner East. In 1996 Sittner East was renamed Meske Hall (see below). A skywalk connects present-day 康纳德大厅 to 工头大厅 with the 工头大厅 lobby serving both Conard and 工头大厅s. 康纳德大厅 has 110 double-occupancy rooms, houses mainly lower-division (大一新生 and Sophomore) women, and is located on the corner of SE Second St. 和阿什大街. on the eastern border of the campus.

The building is divided into two wings, 北方和南方, and each wing on each floor is served by two Resident Assistants.
