Office of Residence Life
The Office of Residence Life oversees the functions of residence life, conference housing, and student meal plans.
There are nine residence halls at Ď㽶´«Ă˝, including three apartment buildings, in which 1,400 students can make their “home away from home” while they pursue their education. The residence halls offer a focused and dynamic living and learning environment. In addition, the Office of Residence Life coordinates operational efforts with several university-affiliated Greek houses.
Mission
The Office of Residence Life fosters a safe and inclusive learning-focused community. We complement the academic mission of Ď㽶´«Ă˝ and promote responsibility for self, others, and the university community.
Learning Outcomes
The Office of Residence Life aspires to deliver a co-curricular experience that cultivate:
- Responsibility for self—students will recognize opportunities for making reflective decisions, understand the impact of their decisions, and be empowered to engage in self-advocacy
- Responsibility for others—students will identify and design ways of engaging in healthy relationships with others from diverse backgrounds and show an understanding of how their behavior affects others; students will take initial steps to resolve conflicts with others without seeking outside assistance
- Responsibility for the university community—students will deploy their knowledge and talents to improve the Ď㽶´«Ă˝ community and to mobilize others to create and contribute to a safe community
