<br />
The '''UP YAKAL RESIDENCE HALL ASSOCIATION (UP YRHA)''' is a student-based organization in the '''UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES DILIMAN''' and among the top dormitory organizations in the University Dormitory Complex. '''UP YRHA''' is the official in-house association of residents in Yakal Residence Hall, the most sought after dormitory of the university.<br />
<br />
==HISTORY OF THE RESIDENCE HALL==<br />
'''Yakal Residence Hall''' was built in 1962 from the vestiges of six-type A cottages of UP Men's North Dormitory which were demolished in 1961. US Peace Corps-male and female volunteers, including Filipino counterparts, were the first occupants of Yakal for one summer in 1962. Upon their departure, female students of all year levels who could not be accomodated in Banahaw Residence Hall (now Ilang-Ilang Residence Hall) were accepted.<br />
<br />
This unit became a men's hall for the undergraduates, from sophomores to seniors between 1962 to 1966. It was not until the construction of the Female Extension on October, 1978 that Yakal was made co-educational. Upon completion of the building, all female residents from Narra were asked to transfer to Yakal. At the start of the second semester, 1978-1979, male residents immediately worked out the reorganization of the '''Yakal House Council''' with female residents.<br />
<br />
Yakal Residence Hall is a two-storey co-educationla dormitory for both freshmen and upperclassmen. A centrally-located lobby connects the main building to its extension. The lobby is furnished with a piano, and several sofa sets. East is the recreation room provided with a ping-pong table. Adjacent the recreation room is a fenced, well-lighted basketball court.<br />
<br />
The main building, which houses the male students, has two wings with total accomodation capacity of 196. Four students occupy a room with double-decked beds. Communal facilities include the TV Area located near the lobby area. Refrigerators are also provided. The Extension of Yakal, which houses female students, is parallel to the main building. Comprising of two wings with a total accomodation city capacity of 182, only two students occupy a room with built-in furnishings. The beds are single level.<br />
<br />
After more than four decades of existence, the comfort rooms of Yakal malewing was finally renovated thru the initiative of Mr. Rodolfo A. Robidillo, the dormitory manager from 2002-2007 and 2009 to present . He also improved the comfort rooms of the female wing and the receiving area including the counter during his term.<br />
<br />
The renovation was funded by the Office of the Chancellor. The Yakal Residence Hall Internet Connection Project was also launcehd and implemented on June 29, 2004. Yakal Residence Hall is the first dormitory in the campus to have internet access.<br />
