- All you need to know about Bruce Hall and its dorm rooms at the University of North Texas. Hopefully this gives you an extensive overview of the layout and features of the room, as well as answers some questions you may have. Go Mean Green!
Hi Maddie, I loved your video as I am 1973 graduate of UNT (Music) who spent Freshman year in Bruce Hall. That is fifty years ago! Bruce is still, remarkably the same! Things that have changed: co-ed dorm now, air-conditioned, cement floors in rooms look like changed to hardwoods, new beds that loft, practice rooms in basement added. Cafeteria, lobby and room lay-outs very much UNCHANGED. Thanks for providing me with a nostolgic tour and some very happy memories!
Aw I’m glad to hear that, Ana! I’m happy that my video brought back some memories for you :)
We called it NTSU in fall of 1982, I'm now 59 years old. I was a total jazzer in the Lab bands.I got kicked out of Bruce Hall in 1982, for playing my Selmer alto saxophone at 11pm in the practice rooms with door open. We never had AC, we had those big square window fans. We never had phone lines, we used the pay phones in the lobby, The cafeteria had the greatest food! All my friends lived in Bruce, when I got thrown out, they sent me to Kendal hall, The home of all these international students from Saudi Arabia who all chain smoked in the lobby, the smoke was disgusting! then later I moved off campus, to university apartments, and I threw wild kegger parties, and I got a job at Texas country KDNT 1440 AM radio. I would play my sax over the radio!!!!
I lived in kendal hall in 1980 and enjoyed it. We didn't have an AC in our room but did have a phone in the room.
It has been decades since I attended NTSU, currently University of North Texas. However, my wife and I continue to attend Mean Green football games and enjoy it.
A wing, yes? I was on the B wing (B213) in 1979. Looking out your window, I can see my room directly across from yours! The heater/air conditioner is a huuuge upgrade. Summers were BRUTAL before they were installed. Thanks for the trip "home".
Thanks for the tour! Very helpful. I have an incoming freshman for Fall 2022. He specifically wanted Bruce Hall. I just secured his application this morning. I think he’ll be really happy to be there!
This tour triggered major flashbacks. My room had this same layout. First day in Bruce there was a food fight in the cafeteria (Animal House had just been released) and I wondered what the hell I had gotten myself into. Wolfed down lunch and quickly exited the cafeteria unscathed only to be accosted by a couple of guitar players who noticed I was carrying a banjo (kind of rare back then). Went to their room, listened to some Dave Grisman Quintet records and then started jamming with them. In walked a player with an upright bass and another with a mandolin. A crowd gathered at the dorm room door. No one complained even though it wasn’t official practice hours. Bruce was a magical place. Thanks for the video. Nicely done. Best wishes for your success in the music biz.
Thank you! This is great info for an incoming Freshman Fall 2023. Thanks for mentioning that this is hall that lots of musicians are in and about parking, food etc. Very informative!
Hey Maddie... thanks so much for the very detailed video! We just did the housing tour this past Saturday and looked at newest to oldest dorms and my soon to be freshman chose Bruce! You have given us so many great ideas! I was actually a student there, at Clark Hall, in 1981.... a lot has changed but so much is still the same.
Relaxing, informative, wonderful tour 🤗👏
Thank you!!❤️❤️
I lived there in the early 90s. We had no AC. Loved hanging out in the lobby to stay cool.
This video was very helpful and thorough! I appreciate the time and energy you put into this video to help others.
Thank you so much, Kelly!
The biggest bug I’ve ever seen in my life was when I lived in Bruce but man, it was such a fun community.
I also live in Bruce and have the same rug as you.. wild
Stopped by to say hi!! Hope you get to making videos soon although in college its rare to have time for fun
This is so helpful! How has your year been?? I’ve been trying to find like vlogs of unt and i happened to stumble on this amazing video!
Omg same I'm a senior and I don't know how Covid affected college life 😭
I’m so glad the video was helpful! I will say Covid has really affected college for me this year. There has been no in person club gatherings and basically the only events have been limited capacity sporting events. I haven’t met a lot of people here either and I’ve only had one in person class all year. But the good news in UNT is planning on having more extensive in person classes next year, and hopefully that means more social events too!
@@maddied157 thank you soo much, I'm sorry that happened to you, next year will hopefully be better
@@kah1i1 Thank you me too! Hope the rest of your senior year goes well!
Thanks so much for this! Trying to help my son plan for his Freshman year there. This was great!
Awesome! Glad I could help!
Sorry for the reupload. Had some audio and visual issues.
Lol I actually am trying to choose which dorm to stay in and this video was soo helpful!! Its hard to see the campus with all the covid restrictions... Thank you so much!!
No problem! Glad I could help! :)
Hi Maddie I have been watching your videos a lot lately and I would like to know if you would upload more😀
Hi! I’ll be in Bruce this fall and I was wondering if ti could show the bathroom area? Also thank you for this video! Has helped a lot!
Sadly, I have already left for the year. But I can tell you they are communal bathrooms which you share with everyone in your hallway. There are five toilet stalls and five shower stalls, including one big stall of each for handicap persons. The shower heads usually vary in water pressure depending on which shower you use, and the big shower stall has a hand held shower head if you prefer that. There’s also two sinks and a huge wall mirror too. The door to the bathroom requires a code to get in for privacy as well. They clean the bathrooms every week day, so there will be a specified hour that you can’t use that bathroom while they clean it. However there is a bathroom up at the front that is always open to use. Hopefully that helps you get an idea of what the bathrooms are like. Let me know if you have any other questions :)
Great video! Thanks! This helps a lot!
I'm going to be in Bruce next year!!
Awesome! You’ll love it :)
HI Maddie! My daughter will be attending UNT next fall. Should we send her with a swifter mop and sweeper? Thanks
Ahhh thank you so much! I always come back to this video to see how much room I’m gonna have. Also how big is that fridge? I’m in charge of getting the fridge and I like the size of yours
Mine is approximately
33” long
19” wide
20” deep
I think we got it at Target or Walmart so it shouldn’t be too hard to find :)
Here’s the link to it:

I'm rooming in Bruce, kinda nervous tbh
My son will be there too! Super nice guy. He’s on Instagram @mr.noahtvance. So at least you’ll know one person. ☺️
@@kimvance4793 awe thank you for this!! Have a nice day Mrs. Kim Vance :)
Super Helpful!!! Thx
ITS HAPPENING SHES GONNA POST AGAIN!!!!!!!
Maddie was a dog nextdoor to me I used to live in bruce hall too. N9vemger 8, 2023 I think someone stole my transcripts in austin texas from my house back in 1991.
are there any room inspections? like do workers randomly check your room and stuff like that?
I can’t say for previous years, but for this year, my Resident Assistant knocked on my door and greeted me while glancing around a bit. That only happened the first week of school. Although in years without Covid, they may have come in and checked the room.
MY DAUGHTER WILL BE GOING THERE AND I WAS WONDERING HOW MANY FLOORS DOES BRUCE HALL HAVE?
I can’t remember if it’s 3 or 4 floors. The 1st floor is technically the “basement,” but you can access it from the back entrance. That’s where the music practice rooms are too. Since Bruce is on a slope, the floor which the main entrance is located at is the 2nd floor (which is the floor I stayed on). There is also no elevator; it’s all stairs.
What size TV will fit on top of the dresser? Would a 40" be too big??
My TV here is around 22” wide so 40” might be too big. Sadly, I can’t take exact measurements because I’ve already moved out.
do you happen to remember how many sockets were in your room? its been a while since you uploaded this so I understand if not though:)
TIA
There’s sockets by the sink, the mirror vanity area, both desks, and above the dresser. I would definitely recommend bringing surge protected power strips for more outlets.
@@maddied157 Awesome, thanks a bunch! take care:)
Can you fit a 32 in tv in that space above the dresser?
Hm I don’t know. I can’t really say for sure. My TV in the video is about 22” long. All the rooms in Bruce are different though, so it’s hard to gage.
@@maddied157 ok thank you so much
Hi, could you by any chance let me know what room number this is? I’ll be in Bruce hall next year and I want to know what the rooms in my hall look like.
This is C209. It’s the hall closest to the lobby, and my room was the last one on the left side (all the way down right next to the stairs). Our hallway on 2nd floor is technically a ground floor too, since Bruce is build on an incline, so no other rooms were below us. Hope this helps!
Hello dear I hope you are doing well.
I have one question
I am going to take admission in unt in January intake so
Can I change my master program after arrives in USA .and which tuition fees I pay for my first master degree from my own country that will also transfer to new course
Sorry, I wish I had an answer for you. I never had to change my major, so I don’t know the process that happens for that. I would contact an advisor at UNT and ask them. They’ll have a better understanding of that to help you.
what are the dimensions of the rack by the sink?
30” tall
13” x 7.5” wide
I saw this exact rack at Target again this year too.
Don't be concerned about the Crickets turning up in your room. They were probably sent your way, with warm wishes, by the ghost of Buddy Holly.
Hope you have a great experience at UNT!
Ha thanks!
@@maddied157 For the occasional insect, don't kill them, use a plastic peanut butter
jar, and remove the bug and let it go free outside.
not rlly relevant to the vid but is that jimmy page on that one poster?
The big poster is Alice Cooper and the calendar is David Bowie
