You are now a citizen of a new community which relies upon you to be a contributing member of that community. The goal of the Residence Life and Housing staff is to provide a supportive environment where you can develop the skills and abilities you need to be a strong leader and a contributing citizen while learning about yourself and developing a healthy lifestyle. Our mission is to do this through intentional programming, meaningful interactions and experiential opportunities. Here you will make friendships that will last a lifetime, and see how living on campus can enhance the academic experience. A successful residential experience also depends upon each residentโ€™s acceptance of personal and collective responsibility and learning how each personโ€™s actions impact themselves and their fellow students. Count on your Residence Life and Housing staff members (Resident Assistants, Area Coordinators, Assistant Directors) to help you with your questions. Be sure to check in with the web site, this page or our Twitter account regularly to keep in touch with deadlines and important information.
