Newark Hall is an undergraduate hall of residence located on Jubilee Campus of the University of Nottingham, England. It is named after the local town of Newark, sharing its coat of arms and motto "Deo Fretus Erumpe" (lat.: "Trust in God and Sally Forth"). Housing about 400 students, this makes it the largest hall of residence in the University.
As the rest of the campus, it was designed by Sir Michael Hopkins in the shape of an eight framing two quads surrounded by the building.
Social life revolves around the Junior Common Room, who are responsible for organizing events for all residents. These tend to take place in the quads or large bar on the ground floor of the building. Formal dinners, hosted by the Warden, are also held at regular intervals througout the year.
Since the start of the academic year of 2002, the Hall is lead by its Warden Dr. Fiona McCandless, supported by the rest of the Senior Common Room and Hall Management.
During non-term time, the Hall caters for conferences and visitors to the University.
