Womxn of Color House
115 High Street
Created in 1990, Womxn of Color House is a safe place for all who are committed to women of color issues on campus, a place where students can come together to share cultures and experiences, to learn about others, and to gain support. The Womxn of Color House is the heart of the Women of Color Collective. The house serves as a resource and a meeting place for women of color and allies on campus. The Womxn of Color House enables communication by serving as a social area for members of various communities, and has served to enhance the learning of other members of the Wesleyan community.
Lead Paint Disclosure
Housing built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint. Lead from paint, paint chips, and dust can pose health hazards if not taken care of properly. Lead exposure is especially harmful to young children and pregnant women. Before renting pre-1978 housing, landlords must disclose the presence of known lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards in the dwelling. Tenants must also receive a Federally approved pamphlet on lead poisoning prevention. The pamphlet may be viewed at: The University recognizes that any housing built prior to 1978 may contain lead-based paint and/or lead-based paint hazards. By accepting your housing contract, you are affirming that you have reviewed the pamphlet Protect Your Family from Lead In Your Home.
All Wesleyan housing was built before 1978 with the exception of the following: Bennet Hall, Fauver Apartments, 19 Fountain Avenue, 20 Fountain Avenue, 25 Fountain Avenue, 231 Pine Street, and 14 Warren Street.
