Residence Life Information
The Resident Life Staff
The residence Life staff consists of a full-time Director, three Graduate Residents, one resident Director for each building, and one Resident Assistant for each floor. Our goal is to make your life outside the classroom as rich and rewarding as possible. You will see many programs and activities around campus that are sponsored by the Residence Life department and we would like to take this opportunity to invite each of you to participate!
Safety in the Residence Halls
You will have access to campus security 24 hours a day (ext. 4299). If you feel uncomfortable walking alone after dark, Security Officers are available to escort you on campus. In addition during the evening hours, there will be a Resident Assistant/Director and a professional staff member on-call. To prevent loss of personal belongings, be sure to lock your room any time you leave.
If you lose your key(s), please be sure to report it to the Residence Life office IMMEDIATELY so that no uninvited persons can enter your building/room!
For safety reasons, we ask that you sign in all guests (male and female) at the front desk. You may have as many as three guests stay at any one time and they may stay for three days/two nights without special permission. The first floor of Roblee has limited male guest hours and you must notify a staff member 48 hours in advance of any male overnight guests. In addition to signing in your guests, they must be escorted at all times while in the building.
