==History==

===Hartley Institution===
[[File:HartleyOpening.JPG|thumb|right|The arrival of Prime Minister [[Lord Palmerston]] for the opening of the Hartley Institute on 15 October 1862]]

The University of Southampton has its origin as the Hartley Institution which was formed in 1862 from a benefaction by Henry Robinson Hartley (1777–1850).  Hartley had inherited a fortune from two generations of successful wine merchants.<ref>Mann, John Edgar & Ashton, Peter (1998). ''Highfield, A Village Remembered''.  Halsgrove.  {{ISBN|1-874448-91-4}}.</ref> At his death in 1850, he left a bequest of £103,000 to the Southampton Corporation for the study and advancement of the sciences in his property on Southampton's High Street, in the city centre.

{{rquote|right|...employ the interest, dividends and annual proceeds in such a manner as best promote the study and advancement of the sciences of Natural History, Astronomy, Antiquities, Classical and Oriental Literature in the town, such as by forming a Public Library, Botanic Gardens, Observatory, and collections of objects with the above sciences.<ref>{{Harvnb|Patterson|1962|pp=9–24|loc=Chapter: "Henry Robinson Hartley and the Establishment of the Hartley Institution"}}</ref>|Bequest to the Corporation of Southampton of Henry Robertson Hartley estate.}}

Hartley was an eccentric straggler, who had little liking of the new age docks and railways in Southampton.<ref name="Patterson-1-9">{{Harvnb|Patterson|1962|pp=1–9|loc=Chapter: "Southampton in the Middle of the Nineteenth Century"}}</ref> He did not desire to create a college for many (as formed at similar time in other English industrial towns and commercial ports) but a cultural centre for Southampton's intellectual elite.<ref name="Patterson-1-9" /> After lengthy legal challenges to the Bequest, and a public debate as to how best interpret the language of his Will, the Southampton Corporation choose to create the Institute (rather than a more widely accessible college, that some public figures had lobbied for).

On 15 October 1862, the Hartley Institute was opened by the Prime Minister [[Lord Palmerston]] in a major civic occasion which exceeded in splendor anything that anyone in the town could remember.<ref>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=13–17|loc=Chapter: "Growing Pains"}}</ref> After initial years of financial struggle, the Hartley Institute became the Hartley College in 1883. This move was followed by increasing numbers of students, teaching staff, an expansion of the facilities and registered lodgings for students.

===University College===
[[File:HartleyLibraryFront.JPG|thumb|left|upright|Front of the Hartley Library, constructed in the 1930s after the move to Highfield Campus, with the support of private donors.]]

In 1902, the Hartley College became the Hartley [[University college|University College]], a degree awarding branch of the [[University of London]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.senatehouselibrary.ac.uk/our-collections/historic-collections/archives-manuscripts/university-of-london-student-records-1836-1931/|title=Student lists|publisher=Senate House Library|access-date=4 April 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100914105055/http://www.shl.lon.ac.uk/specialcollections/archives/studentrecords.shtml|archive-date=14 September 2010|df=dmy-all}}</ref> This was after inspection of the teaching and finances by the University College Grants Committee,<ref>{{Harvnb|Patterson|1962|pp=89–107|loc=Chapter: "Reorganization and Achievement: 1892–1902"}}</ref> and donations from Council members (including [[William Erasmus Darwin|William Darwin]] the then Treasurer). An increase in student numbers in the following years motivated fund raising efforts to move the college to [[greenfield land]] around Back Lane (now University Road) in the [[Highfield, Hampshire|Highfield]] area of Southampton. On 20 June 1914, [[Viscount Haldane]] opened the new site of the renamed Southampton University College. However, the outbreak of the First World War six weeks later meant no lectures could take place there, as the buildings were handed over by the college authorities for use as a military hospital. To cope with the volume of casualties, wooden huts were erected at the rear of the building. These were donated to the university by the [[War Office]] after the end of fighting, in time for the transfer from the high street premises in 1920. At this time, Highfield Hall, a former country house and overlooking [[Southampton Common]],<ref>{{Harvnb|Patterson|1962|pp=107–138|loc=Chapter: "The Old Hartley"}}</ref> for which a lease had earlier been secured, commenced use as a [[halls of residence|hall of residence]] for female students. South Hill, on what is now the Glen Eyre Halls Complex was also acquired, along with [[Wessex Lane Halls#South Stoneham House|South Stoneham House]] to house male students.

Further expansion through the 1920s and 1930s was made possible through private donors, such as Edward Turner Sims's two daughters Mary and Margaret for the construction of the university library, to fulfil a request in his will, and from the people of Southampton, enabling new buildings on both sides of University Road. During World War II the university suffered damage in the [[Southampton Blitz]] with bombs landing on the campus and its halls of residence.<ref name="nash5">{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=44–57|loc=Chapter: "War and the Years After, 1939–1952"}}</ref> The college decided against evacuation, instead expanding its Engineering Department, School of Navigation and developing a new School of Radio Telegraphy.<ref name="nash5"/> The university hosted the [[Supermarine]] plans and design team for a period but in December 1940 further bomb hits resulted in it being relocated to [[Hursley House]].<ref name=Howman77>{{cite book |last1=Howman |first1=Karl|last2=Cetintas |first2=Ethan|last3=Clarke |first3=Gavin |date=2020 |title=Secret Spitfires: Britain's Hidden Civilian Army |publisher=The History Press |page=77 |isbn=9780750991995}}</ref>

Halls of residence were used to house Polish, French and American troops.<ref name="nash5"/> After the war, departments such as Electronics grew under the influence of professor [[Erich Zepler]] and the [[Institute of Sound and Vibration Research|Institute of Sound and Vibration]] was established.

On 29 April 1952, [[Queen Elizabeth II]] granted the University of Southampton a [[royal charter]], the first to be given to a university during her reign, which enabled it to award degrees.<ref>{{cite web|title=Becoming a University |url=http://www.southampton.ac.uk/aboutus/historyofuni/becoming_a_university.html|publisher=University of Southampton |access-date=13 June 2012|archive-date=29 November 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141129013206/http://www.southampton.ac.uk/aboutus/historyofuni/becoming_a_university.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> Six faculties were created: Arts, Science, Engineering, Economics, Education and Law. The first University of Southampton degrees were awarded on 4 July 1953, following the appointment of the [[Gerald Wellesley, 7th Duke of Wellington|Duke of Wellington]] as Chancellor of the university. Student and staff numbers grew throughout the next couple of decades as a response to the [[Robbins Report]]. The campus also grew significantly, when in July 1961 the university was given the approval to acquire some 200 houses on or near the campus by the Borough Council.<ref name=nash6>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=57–68|loc=Chapter: "The Pre-Robbins Years, 1952–1965"}}</ref> In addition, more faculties and departments were founded, including Medicine and Oceanography (despite the discouragement of Sir [[John Wolfenden]], the chairman of the University Grants Committee).<ref name="nash6"/> Student accommodation was expanded throughout the 1960s and 1970s with the acquisition of Chilworth manor and new buildings at the Glen Eyre and Montefiore complexes.

In 1987, a crisis developed when the [[Higher Education Funding Council for England|University Grants Committee]] announced, as part of nationwide cutbacks, a series of reductions in the funding of the university.<ref name=nash9>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=92–104|loc=Chapter: "Who Pays the Piper, 1979–1985"}}</ref> To eliminate the expected losses, the budgets and deficits subcommittee proposed reducing staff numbers. This proposal was met with demonstrations on campus and was later reworked (to reduce the redundancies and reallocate the reductions in faculties funding) after being rejected by the university [[Academic Senate|Senate]].<ref name="nash9"/>

By the mid-1980s through to the 1990s, the university looked to expand with new buildings on the Highfield campus, developing the Chilworth Manor site into a science park and conference venue, opening the National Oceanography Centre at a dockside location and purchasing new land from the City Council for the Arts Faculty and sports fields (at Avenue Campus and Wide Lane, respectively).<ref name="Uos SC 80s">{{cite web |last1=Ruthven |first1=Jenny |title=Highfield Campus 100: 1980-2000 |url=https://specialcollectionsuniversityofsouthampton.wordpress.com/2019/08/30/highfield-campus-100-1980-2000/ |website=University of Southampton Special Collections |date=30 August 2019 |publisher=University of Southampton |access-date=26 October 2020}}</ref>

===Research university===
[[File:Autumnal trees, University of Southampton (geograph 5599126).jpg|thumb|right|The Gardens on the west half of Highfield Campus were landscaped by [[Basil Spence]] and feature artwork by [[Barbara Hepworth]].]]

Under the leadership of then Vice-Chancellor, Sir [[Howard Newby]] the university became more focused in encouraging and investment in more and better quality research.<ref name=nash11>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=116–130|loc=Chapter: "Into the Premier League"}}</ref> In the mid-1990s, the university gained two new campuses, as the [[Winchester School of Art]] and [[La Sainte Union College of Higher Education|La Sainte Union College]] became part of the university.<ref name="Uos SC 80s"/> A new school for Nursing and Midwifery was also created and went on to provide training for [[National Health Service|NHS]] professionals in central-southern England. This involved a huge increase in student numbers and the establishment of sub-campuses in [[Basingstoke]], [[Winchester]], [[Portsmouth]] and [[Newport, Isle of Wight]].<ref name="nash11"/>

In the autumn of 1997, the university experienced Britain's worst outbreak of [[meningitis]], with the death of three students.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/university-offers-students-jab-to-fight-meningitis-1163629.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110909013342/http://www.independent.co.uk/news/university-offers-students-jab-to-fight-meningitis-1163629.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=9 September 2011|title= University offers students jab to fight meningitis |last= Laurance |first=Jeremy|date= 8 June 1998|work=The Independent|access-date=10 April 2009 | location=London}}</ref> The university responded to the crisis by organising a mass vaccination programme, and later took the ground-breaking decision to offer all new students vaccinations.<ref name="nash11"/>

The university celebrated its Golden Jubilee on 22 January 2002. By this time, Southampton had research income that represented over half of the total income.<ref name="nash11"/> In recent years a number of new landmark buildings have been added as part of the estates development.

The university joined the [[SES (universities)|Science and Engineering South Consortium]] (SES) on 9 May 2013. The SES was created to pool the collective insights and resources of the [[University of Oxford]], [[University of Cambridge]], [[Imperial College London]] and [[University College London]] to innovate and explore new ideas through collaboration whilst providing efficiencies of scale and shared utilisation of facilities. This is the most powerful cluster of research intensive universities in the UK and the new consortium is to become one of the world's leading hubs for science and engineering research.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/news-articles/0513/130509-science-and-engineering-south-consortium |title=Science and Engineering South Consortium (SES-5) |publisher=University College London |date=9 May 2013 |access-date=17 August 2013}}</ref>

In 2015, the university started a fundraising campaign to build the Centre for Cancer Immunology based at [[Southampton General Hospital]].

===Highfield Campus===
{{Main|Highfield Campus}}
[[File:Highfield Campus aerial view.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Aerial view of the Highfield Campus]]

The university's main campus is located in the residential area of [[Highfield, Hampshire|Highfield]]. Opened on 20 June 1914, the site was initially used as a military hospital during World War I. The campus grew gradually, mainly consisting of detailed red brick buildings (such as the Hartley library and West building of the Students' Union) designed by [[Sir Giles Gilbert Scott]].<ref>Gavin Stamp, 'Giles Gilbert Scott' in ''[[Oxford Dictionary of National Biography]]'', Oxford University Press, 2004.</ref> In 1956, Sir [[Basil Spence]] was commissioned to prepare a masterplan of the campus for the foreseeable future.<ref name=nash22>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=272–281|loc=Chapter: "Building a Vision"}}</ref> This included incorporating the University Road, that split the {{convert|59|acre|ha|adj=on}} campus in two and the quarry of Sir [[Sidney Kimber]]'s brickyard that itself was split by a stream. Unable to remove the road and the private houses along it, Spence designed many of the buildings facing away from it, using contemporary designs working in concrete, glass and mosaic.<ref name="nash22"/> During recent decades, new buildings were added that contravened the master plan of Spence, such as the Synthetic Chemistry Building and Mountbatten Building (the latter of which was destroyed by fire in 2005).

In 1991, the Highfield Planning Group was formed within the university under the chairmanship of [[Tim Holt (statistician)|Tim Holt]].<ref name=nash22/> This led to the development of new buildings such as the Jubilee Sports Hall, Student Services Building and the [[Institute of Sound and Vibration Research]]. In addition, existing buildings, such as the Hartley Library, were extensively renovated and extended. A new masterplan for the Highfield campus was drawn up in 1998 by [[Rick Mather]], who proposed that the University Road should become a tree-lined boulevard backed by white-rendered buildings.<ref name="Rick Mather Masterplan">{{cite web|title=University of Southampton Masterplan|url=http://www.rickmather.com/project/category/university_of_southampton_masterplan|publisher=Rick Mather Architects|access-date=17 February 2014}}</ref> He also contributed some of the newer buildings such as the Zepler and Gower Buildings.<ref name=nash22/>

===Avenue Campus===
{{Main|Avenue Campus}}
[[File:AvenueCampus.JPG|thumb|right|Avenue Campus]]

Avenue Campus is currently home to the Faculty of Humanities, with the exception of Music, and is located a short distance away from the main Highfield campus. The site previously housed the Southampton Tramsheds and [[Richard Taunton Sixth Form College|Richard Taunton's College]], of which the existing building still stands on the site. It was purchased by the university from [[Southampton City Council]] for £2&nbsp;million in December 1993<ref name="nash11"/> so that the university could expand – planning regulations meant that excess land on the Highfield campus couldn't be built on and had to be reserved for future car parking spaces. The car parking spaces have now been built.<ref>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|p=276}}</ref> The departments moved onto the campus in 1996.<ref>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=132}}</ref> The campus consists of the original Tauntons building from the early 20th century but redeveloped with a glass-fronted courtyard and extension and a new Archaeology building built in 2006 costing £2.7&nbsp;million.<ref>{{cite web|title=Archaeology overview|url=http://www.southampton.ac.uk/postgraduate/pgstudy/researchareas/humanities/archaeology/archaeology_overview.html|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=25 January 2013}}</ref>

===Libraries===
[[File:HartleyLibraryRear.JPG|thumb|right|Exterior of the 2005 extension to the Hartley Library]]

The university has libraries located on each of the academic campuses and in total the collection holds over 1.5&nbsp;million books and periodicals.<ref>{{cite web|title=Library Services and Sites|url=http://library.soton.ac.uk/services|website=Library|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=3 July 2014}}</ref><ref name="hartley extension">{{cite web|url=http://www.southampton.ac.uk/estatedevelopment/landmarkbuildings/hartleylibrary.html|title=Hartley Library Extension|publisher=southampton.ac.uk|access-date=16 April 2009|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140223045916/http://www.southampton.ac.uk/estatedevelopment/landmarkbuildings/hartleylibrary.html|archive-date=23 February 2014|df=dmy-all}}</ref>

The university's primary library is the '''Hartley Library''', located on Highfield campus and first built in 1935 and extended further in 1959 and 2005.<ref name="hartley extension"/> The majority of the books and periodicals are held there as well as specialist collections of works such as Ford collection of Parliamentary papers and the [[European Documentation Centre]]. In addition, the main library houses the Special Collections and Archives centre, housing more than 6 million manuscripts and a large archive of rare books.<ref name=nash20>{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=256–268|loc=Chapter: "Professional Support Services"}}</ref> Specific collections include the correspondence of [[Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington]], acquired by the university in 1983, as well as the Broadlands Archive, including the [[Henry John Temple, 3rd Viscount Palmerston|Palmerston]] and Mountbatten papers. The library also contains 4,500 volumes of [[Claude Montefiore]]'s library on Theology and [[Judaism]], the Ford Parliamentary Papers, [[Frank Perkins (engineer)|Frank Perkins]]' collection of books on agriculture, Sir [[Samuel Gurney-Dixon]]'s [[Dante]] collection and the James Parkes Library of Jewish/non-Jewish relations.<ref name=nash20/> The library also includes six rare editions of the [[Divina Commedia]]; the first of these, the Brescia edition of 1487, is the library's earliest book.<ref name=nash20/>

In addition to the main Hartley Library, there are other libraries based at the university's other campuses primarily focused on the subjects studied at that location. As one of the smaller libraries and given its proximity to the Highfield campus, the Avenue Library only houses a collection of key Humanities resources.<ref>{{cite web|title=Avenue Library|url=http://library.soton.ac.uk/avenue|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=3 December 2013}}</ref> It does however also hold an extensive film library, many of an international nature.<ref>{{cite web|title=Film Collection – Avenue|url=http://library.soton.ac.uk/content.php?pid=473387&sid=3876036|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=3 December 2013}}</ref> On a larger scale, the libraries at the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton General Hospital, Winchester School of Art are more complete and house the majority of the resources and specialist collections on oceanography and earth sciences, healthcare and art and design respectively.<ref>{{cite web|title=National Oceanographic Library|url=http://library.soton.ac.uk/nol|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=3 December 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Health Services Library|url=http://library.soton.ac.uk/hsl|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=3 December 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Winchester School of Art Library|url=http://library.soton.ac.uk/wsa|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=3 December 2013}}</ref> The Malaysia campus holds a small collection of reference books but the majority of the resources needed for courses at the campus are available online.<ref>{{cite web|title=Malaysia Campus|url=http://library.soton.ac.uk/malaysia|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=3 December 2013}}</ref> Separate from the Hartley Library is the E.

The university's main Highfield campus is home to three main arts venues supported and funded by the university and [[Arts Council England]].<ref>{{cite web|title=New agreement will champion culture and creativity for all in Southampton|url=https://www.southampton.ac.uk/news/2018/11/ace-uos-agreement.page|publisher=Southampton University |access-date=15 April 2019}}</ref> The '''Nuffield Theatre''' opened in 1963 with construction funded by a grant from the [[Nuffield Foundation]] of £130,000 (£2,450,000 in 2013).<ref>{{Harvnb|Patterson|1962|pp=222–223}}</ref> The building was designed by Sir [[Basil Spence]] as part of his campus masterplan with additional direction provided by [[Richard Southern (theatre designer)|Sir Richard Southern]].<ref>{{cite web|title=History|url=http://www.nuffieldtheatre.co.uk/about-us/history|publisher=Nuffield Theatre|access-date=28 November 2013}}</ref> The theatre consists of a 480-seat auditorium, that also served as the principal lecture theatre at the time of construction, as well as additional lecture theatres and adjacent Kitchen bar.<ref>{{cite web|title=Venue Hire|url=http://www.nuffieldtheatre.co.uk/about-us/venue-hire|publisher=Nuffield Theatre|access-date=28 November 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Nuffield Theatre Building 6|url=http://data.southampton.ac.uk/building/6.html|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=28 November 2013}}</ref> The theatre went into administration in May 2020 and permanent closure was announced in July 2020.<ref name="Guardian_Nuff">{{cite news |last1=Wiegand |first1=Chris |title=Nuffield Southampton Theatres to close as UK arts crisis deepens |url=https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2020/jul/02/nuffield-southampton-theatres-to-permanently-close-as-uk-arts-crisis-deepens |access-date=2 July 2020 |work=The Guardian |date=2 July 2020}}</ref>

[[File:TurnerSimsConcertHall.JPG|thumb|right|The Turner Sims Concert Hall on Highfield Campus.]]

The '''Turner Sims Concert Hall''' was added to the art provision in October 1974 following a £30,000 (£460,000 in 2012) donation from Margaret Grassam Sims in 1967.<ref name="Sherwood TSCH">{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|p=85}}</ref> It was made to provide a venue specifically for music following difficulties in gaining space in the Nuffield Theatre and due to acoustical differences with the spaces.<ref name="Sherwood TSCH"/> The new space has a single auditorium, designed by the university's [[Institute of Sound and Vibration Research]] with musical performances in mind, with a flat space at the bottom so it could be used for exams.<ref name="Sherwood TSCH"/>

The final of the three Art Council supported venues on campus is the '''[[John Hansard Gallery]]'''. The gallery was opened on 22 September 1980 but is housed in a building that previously housed a tidal model of Southampton Water between 1957 and 1978.<ref name="Sherwood JHG">{{Harvnb|Nash|Sherwood|2002|pp=72–73}}</ref> It took over responsibility from a photographic gallery, a gallery in the Nuffield Theatre and one located on Boldrewood campus.<ref name="Sherwood JHG"/> It houses various exhibitions in contemporary art and is due to move to new premises in Guildhall Square in c.2015.<ref>{{cite web|title=About Us|url=http://www.hansardgallery.org.uk/about-us/|publisher=John Hansard Gallery|access-date=28 November 2013|archive-date=19 December 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161219021015/http://www.hansardgallery.org.uk/about-us/|url-status=dead}}</ref>

===Students' Union===
{{main|University of Southampton Students' Union}}
[[File:SUSU Main Building Main Entrance.jpg|thumb|right|The Students' Union Building on Highfield Campus]]

The University of Southampton Students' Union (SUSU) is the university [[students' union]] and has a range of facilities located on the Highfield campus and on the Winchester School of Art campus. At Highfield the union is sited in three buildings opposite the Hartley Library. The main building (Building 42) was built in the 1960s as part of the Basil Spence masterplan. The building was also extensively renovated in 2002 leading to the creation of two new Bars and 'The Cube' multi-functional space. The West Building dates back to the 1940s in a red brick style, complementing the Hartley Library opposite.  This originally held all of the Union's activities until the construction of the current Union.

===Halls of residence===
[[File:Glen Eyre.jpg|thumb|right|Old block of Glen Eyre halls of residence]]

The university provides accommodation for all first-year students who require it and places in residences are available for international and MSc students. Accommodation may be catered, self-catered, have en-suite facilities, a sink in the room, or access to communal bathroom facilities. Each hall has a [[Common Room (university)#Southampton|Junior Common Room (JCR) committee]] that is responsible for the running of social events and representing the residents to the students union and the university via the Students union JCR officer.

The university's accommodation exists around two large complexes of halls and some other small halls located around the city. These are:

* '''Glen Eyre Complex''': The complex lies less than half a mile to the north of Highfield Campus and houses approximately 2,000 students. The complex consists of several building sets, designed over the years and arranged either around the central landscaped garden – the oldest buildings, Richard Newitt Courts are separated into blocks A-G and are closest to the Glen Bar, students in these blocks have very small flats (between 4 and 6 to a kitchen with usually more than one bathroom). Old Terrace and New Terrace are close to the site's entrance, New Terrace has ensuite rooms. Chancellors' courts, consisting of Selbourne, Jellicoe and Roll courts are the most modern blocks in the accommodation with Brunei house, the most basic of accommodations, on the outskirts. Located on the south side of Glen Eyre Road on the periphery of the site are Chamberlain Halls, which share most things with the main Glen Eyre site. This site consists of Hartley Grove, South Hill, Beechmount House and the Chamberlain blocks. All Glen Eyre Halls are self-catered at present.
* '''[[Wessex Lane Halls]]''': Located in [[Swaythling]] approximately one mile east of the Highfield Campus.  The complex provides accommodation for over 1,800 students and currently comprises two halls of residence: Montefiore and [[Connaught Hall, Southampton|Connaught]]. Connaught Halls are fully catered. The complex also features [[South Stoneham House]], a period building constructed in 1708.
* '''City Gateway Hall''': Located in [[Swaythling]] one mile north-east of the Highfield Campus at the intersection of two major roads. Opened in September 2015, the landmark building was included in the runners-up list of the 2015 [[Carbuncle Cup]]. Featuring a 15-story elliptical tower and two adjoining six-story rectangular accommodation blocks the hall provides accommodation for up to 375 students.<ref>{{cite news|title=London's Walkie Talkie judged UK's worst building|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-34116610|access-date=2 September 2015|agency=BBC News Online|publisher=BBC|date=2 September 2015}}</ref><ref name="New Student Accommodation 2012">{{cite web|title=Student Residential Accommodation|url=http://www.southampton.ac.uk/estatedevelopment/projects/Studentresidences/|work=Estate Development|publisher=University of Southampton|access-date=24 June 2013}}</ref><ref name="City Gateway">{{cite news|title=Student Residential Accommodation|work=BBC News|date=2 October 2014|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-29458857|access-date=12 December 2014}}</ref>
* '''Mayflower Halls''': Located in the city centre within the city's 'Cultural Quarter', and two minutes' walk away from Southampton Central railway station. The hall opened at the start of the 2014/2015 academic year, and houses over 1,100 students in a mix of rooms. It includes a gym which is available to both residents and the public.
* '''Archers Road''': Lying two miles south of Highfield and housing 500 students, Archers Road compromises two halls on separate sites. The two halls, Gateley and Romero, are all self-contained and self-catered but share a reception and other community facilities.
* '''Highfield Halls''': Located adjacent to Avenue Campus and half a mile from Highfield campus. Highfield Halls comprises Aubrey and Wolfe houses and both have on-site catering. The site is also used as a University conference facility during the summer months when vacated.
* '''Gower Building''': Gower is divided into two sections: east and west. Gower east contains a small number of self-contained apartments located above other university amenities, mainly used by mature and postgraduate students. Gower west contains a learning space for [[School of Electronics and Computer Science, University of Southampton|Electronics and Computer Science]] undergraduate students.
* '''Erasmus Park''': Located in Winchester, this hall houses around 400 students studying at the Winchester School of Art.
* '''Riverside Way''': Located in Winchester in close proximity to Erasmus Park. This is a private halls site but the university does have an agreement to allocate some students there.

The university competes in numerous sports in the [[British Universities and Colleges Sport|BUCS]] South East Conference (after switching from the Western Conference in 2009).<ref>{{Cite news | url=http://www.wessexscene.co.uk/sport/3202|title=Southampton Move East| last= Potter| first=Henry| date=20 March 2009| work=The Wessex Scene| access-date=12 September 2009}}</ref> A number of elite athletes are supported by the SportsRec through sports bursaries and the UK Government's Talented Athlete Scholarship Scheme (TASS).

The University Athletic Union was formally established on 29 November 1929, by the University College council. Versions of the union had existed previously to which many clubs such as Cricket, Association Football, Rugby, Boxing, Gymnastics, Tennis and Boat clubs (all formed before the turn of the 20th century) were members.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Slater |first=Paul |year=2002 |chapter=The Early Days |title=The Athletic Union and Some of Its People 1862–2001 |location=Southampton, UK |publisher=Southampton University Students' Union}}</ref>

==== Mustangs Baseball Club ====
<!-- Anchor from redirected [Southampton Mustangs Baseball Club] article; caution with changes. -->
The Southampton Mustangs Baseball Club was founded in 1997.  In the early years, the club participated in mainly friendly games against other British university baseball teams, as no formal university league was in existence.  Starting in 1998, the Mustangs started to host a university baseball tournament – inviting other teams including Oxford, Cambridge, Portsmouth, Royal Holloway, and Norwich.  In 2004 the Mustangs entered into the national adult baseball leagues run by the [[British Baseball Federation]] (BBF).  The club entered in the lowest division, but after a few years of consolidation, the Mustangs have worked their way up from the lower leagues in the BBF to play in the top-tier league of British baseball, the British National Baseball League (NBL), in the 2010 season.<ref>Britain's top baseball league to expand in 2010
The Southampton University Team expanded into a Baseball and Softball Society in 2014 turning it into a mixed society. The team placed 3rd at their first appearance at the M1ST competition in Loughborough in 2016.
