Dedicated during Homecoming 1963, Livedalen Hall was named for a Hatton, North Dakota, farmer named Ole Livedalen, who had willed to Concordia its largest single gift to that date. Livedalen, which provides housing for approximately 220 students and is coed by floor, has separate floors for first-year and returning students. Livedalen is connected to the Normandy, home of the Center for Student Success and the Cobber Bookstore, and is the hall closest to Knutson Campus Center.
