Oberlin Ohio ~ Talcott Hall ~ Kosher Halal Co-op ~ HIstoric ~ 1887 ~ Oberlin College

One of the oldest and most beautiful buildings on campus, Talcott was built in 1886 and has been renovated extensively. Talcott is a second-year and above hall. Two Resident Assistants provide a variety of programs; some are geared towards career or graduate school searches.

Talcott Hall is the home of the Kosher Halal Co-Op, an innovative program where Oberlin's Jewish and Muslim communities cook and eat together according to religious and cultural dietary practices. Many students, faculty, and staff (including non-Jews and non-Muslims) frequently participate in the large Shabbat dinners on Friday nights and celebrations of Jewish and Muslim holidays here. Oberlin Hillel Shabbat services also take place here.356
