Residential Education
Residential Education is a key component of our purpose in the Office of Residential 生活. We pride ourselves on offering educational opportunites beyond the classroom, while ensuring that students have many opportunites to connect with one another, and the resources around them.
事件 for Students
Planned programs
Resident Assistants plan multiple programs for the residents of the floor. 每个程序 has an educational component, such as 可持续性, Social Justice, and Social Responsibility.
The Office of Residential 生活 also programs on a variety of topics throughout the 一年. I Won't Stand For is one of our larger events, pictured on the right. 在 this event, students identify behaviors and topics they wish to challenge. 频繁的 examples include "I Won't Stand For Homophobia," "Hate Speech," etc.
Education in the Halls
Bulletin Boards
Resident Assistants create beautiful bulletin boards once per month for their floor 社区. These bulletin boards are always educational in nature and cover a range of topics including Fire Safety, Wellbeing, and Gender and Inclusivity.
Pictured on the left is a bulletin board completed by an RA for Women's History Month with information about prominent female figures throughout history. Be sure to stop and take a look at the board on your floor!
Opportunities for floor engagement
楼会议
Resident Assistants hold roughly one floor meeting per month. 在 these times, they share important information about what is occurring on campus. For example, in November they speak to their residents about closing procedures and how to get their room ready for break.
These floor meetings are also a great time for the community to come together and continue to get to know one another!
