Mehling Hall, the tallest building on campus and in North Portland, houses women on its eight floors. Mehling was built in 1964 and has housed women exclusively since its opening. The hall is named for Rev. Theodore J. Mehling, C.S.C., the 11th president of the University. During Fr. Mehling's tenure, women first gained full admission to the University. The hall has kitchens on every floor; some of the nicest and most spacious rooms on campus; large study rooms; a ballroom; and an auditorium in the basement used for classes.
