Residential College Cup

The Residential College Cup is an annual competition between the 7 first-year student residential colleges:

  • Birnkrant
  • McCarthy Honors
  • New North
  • Parkside A&H
  • Parkside IRC
  • South (Marks Tower & Pardee Tower)
  • West (Webb Tower)

First-year students who do not live in one of the seven Residential Colleges will still participate in the Residential College Cup.

  • If you live in Century, La Sorbonne, Cardinal Gardens, or McClintock you are part of the West team
  • If you live in Troy or Grad Fam, you are part of the Birnkrant team
  • If you live in Figueroa, you are part of the New North Team 
  • If you live in Cale & Irani, Cowlings & Illium, Nemirovsky, Bohnett, or McMorrow you are part of the McCarthy Honors team  

Points are earned by placement in annual events, attendance at events, or scoring at events. All of these together help to determine each residential college/community’s rankings.
