Bernet Hall, completed in 1935, is one of the newly renovated residence halls at John Carroll. Bernet Hall is dedicated in the name of John J. Bernet, president of the Nickel Plate Railroad and a major supporter of John Carroll University. Mr. Bernet vehemently called for the building of a dormitory instead of a gymnasium to house the “boys from Greater Cleveland who will be forced to go home every night, and a few that may enroll from out of town, but will be forced to find their own lodgings.” Thus, came the construction of John Carroll’s first residence hall. It currently houses a mix of  juniors, and seniors. Bernet rooms are equipped with a full bathroom, TV room, and spacious bedrooms. The layouts of the rooms vary depending on the number of students, (two, three, four, or six) living in each apartment. Located next to the Boler School of Business in the heart of John Carroll’s campus, Bernet provides students with a community life all its own that is very different from the other residence halls.
