Newberry also houses the offices of the Almanian, the campus student newspaper.

Every residence hall has a lobby, study lounge, computer lab and laundry facilities. The Hall is staffed by student resident assistants and a postgraduate hall director.

The beach volleyball court outside of Newberry Hall is referred to by students as Newberry Beach. When the weather gets warmer in the spring, the students take advantage of this feature. Games are played constantly during spring term.

Newberry is named in honor of Helen Newberry Joy, who made several gifts to Alma College during her lifetime. The building was constructed after her death in 1961
