Known for years as Tryon, this complex of apartment-style buildings was renamed Independence Village in 2006 in honor of the birthplace of the university, Independence, Texas. Located on the northwest end of the campus, the residential buildings and the commons building are each named in honor of individuals who were significant to the university. Clark, Provence, and Ferguson Halls were built in 1996, and Taylor, Grover, James, and Tryon Halls were added in 1998. The seven two-story buildings have a total of 54 units that are two bedroom and two bathroom and are assigned with four residents.
Shannon Commons Buildings sits in the middle of the complex and services all of the Independence Village residents. The building houses thecomplex office and a large common room with a TV area, surround sound, pool table, kitchen, and seating area. Residents use this space for programs and events, or to just hang out or play pool. There is also a study room, a large computer lab, vending machines and a mail area for students to send and receive mail.
Resident Assistants are assigned throughout the complex and there are three Resident Directors living on-site. Campus Police patrol this area during the day and evening hours.
