'''Hansee Hall''' is a building and [[dormitory|student dormitory]] in [[Seattle, Washington|Seattle]], belonging to the [[University of Washington]]. Hansee Hall is the oldest residence hall at the University, and was constructed in the 1930s. It took its name in 1961, being named after Martha Lois Hansee.<ref>{{cite news|title=All 'Bout The Buildings|url=http://dailyuw.com/news/2000/oct/12/all-bout-the-buildings/|accessdate=28 July 2012|newspaper=The Daily of the University of Washington|date=October 12, 2000}}</ref> Its internal divisions consist of a narrow corridor attached to four different "Houses", Blaine, Austin, McKee and Leary. In 1936, all of these took their name from prominent [[Washington (U.S. state)|Washington]]ian women from the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century. During the [[Second World War]], Hansee Hall was used by the U.S. military. The building imitates the red brick style of certain [[Ivy League]] schools, and otherwise has a mixture of Tudor and Collegiate Gothic architecture.<ref>http://students.washington.edu/hansee/history.htm</ref> The building is located off N.E. 45th Street in the north campus, just a short walk from nearby [[McCarty Hall]]. It is used as a residence hall to house mostly sophomore through junior undergraduates at the University, and mandates 24-hour quiet hours.<ref>http://students.washington.edu/hansee/faq.htm</ref> It was once a women-only dorm, but is now [[unisex]]. |

Hansee Hall has its own residence hall council called the Kingdom of Hansee in conjunction with the nearby and much smaller [[2104 House]]. The hall council hosts an annual haunted house, as well as a semi-formal ball open to all residence hall students at the University.<ref>{{cite news|last=Klein|first=Annie|title=Hansee Hall Ball Celebrates 25th Anniversary|url=http://dailyuw.com/news/1998/may/15/hansee-hall-ball-celebrates-25th-anniversary/|accessdate=28 July 2012|newspaper=The Daily of the University of Washington|date=May 15, 1998}}</ref> |
