Welcome to Jeter Tainter Callahan (JTC) Hall! As a community primarily home to returning and transfer students, JTC offers a welcoming environment where residents can build connections while enjoying the independence of upperclassman living. JTC is a co-ed community with single-gender living options, lounges and kitchens throughout the buildings, and shared spaces including laundry facilities and game rooms. Located on North Campus, JTC is just a short walk from North Point Dining and the Fitness Center, making it easy to access dining, recreation, and campus activities. Throughout the year, our staff create opportunities for residents to connect and take part in North Campus traditions, including the JTC Haunted Basement, a campus tradition that has been bringing scares and fun to Stout for more than 20 years. Whether you're getting involved on campus, spending time with friends, or making the most of your college experience, JTC provides a welcoming community to call home.
