Pillsbury Court Resident Handbook

The Pillsbury Court townhouse facility is a University faculty and staff living community designed to provide transitional housing to new full time faculty and staff members. Located on the site of the Pillsbury mansion, home of University presidents from 1911 until 1963, the 48 townhouse units were first occupied in October 1965. The University Board of Regents established Pillsbury Court to provide new faculty and staff with temporary housing. New, full-time faculty and staff have the opportunity to live at Pillsbury Court for up to two years.
