Ashby Hall, a residence hall completed in 1911, was named for Confederate General Turner Ashby, who was killed less than two miles east of JMU's campus.
Ashby Hall is home of the Madison International Learning Community.
Ashby reflects a traditional design of long open hallways with rooms on either side of the main corridor. Most rooms are arranged in suites with two students to a room and two rooms sharing a bath. Students sharing the bath are responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of their bathroom.
