Residence Hall Staff

Supervisory Staff

---

Full time staff, graduate assistants and undergraduate staff members serve as supervisory staff in the residence halls. Supervisory staff oversee the community development efforts of the resident assistants, and ensure all health and safety standards are met. Residence Directors directly supervise the RA staff in their assigned residence halls. Community Advisors are undergraduate students who coordinate community development with the Assistant Director in certain residence halls. All supervisory staff work with students, resident assistants (RAs), house councils, and the Office of Student Affairs to provide an environment within which each student can reach his or her fullest potential.

Resident Assistants

---

Resident Assistants are upperclass students who live within each residence hall community. They are available to assist you with any questions or problems you may have. In addition, they act in counseling and an informative capacity and handle assigned administrative responsibilities. Their goal is to interact with residents, helping to build and maintain a sense of community within the residence halls. They also strive toward bridging the classroom experience with residential living through educational and social programming, and to nurture a sense of mutual respect and responsibility in the residence halls.
