\n Southam Hall\n <\/h1>\n \n <\/header>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

Southam Hall honours Carleton\u2019s first chancellor and former publisher of The Ottawa Citizen Harry Stevenson Southam, who also donated a significant portion of the land on which the campus is built.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here you will find the 444-seat Kailash Mital Theatre, Carleton\u2019s largest lecture hall. Two fully-equipped television studios on the sixth floor are used by Carleton\u2019s instructional television service (CUTV), which provides distance education courses throughout the Ottawa Valley via digital cable television, and by students in the University\u2019s highly acclaimed journalism program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Outdoor Amphitheatre between Southam and Paterson halls is used for concerts and classes during fair weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
