Building Life-Changing Relationships

We believe that true learning happens within community. In Residence Life, we seek to assist our students in actively finding and establishing lasting relationships while living in our residence halls. Our Residence Life staff serve as promotors & protectors of our purposeful learning community. Our team works to support an environment of strong student engagement where students can thrive throughout their college years.
