The Office of Residential Life and Housing provides services to the residential population to enhance the on-campus living experience. We want to ensure that all members of the community are informed about what they can expect from this office, and in turn, what this office expects from the residential community.
This Partnership Agreement, which has been approved by SGA and the Housing Advisory Board, provides a two-way summary of expectations related to Residential Life and Housing. We welcome all opportunities to collaborate with students to create and maintain a community where everyone can thrive.
