Resident Advisors

Resident Advisors live on floors with resident students to offer advice, build community and provide educational programming for the students they serve. RAs hold community meetings, help students with administrative processes regarding their housing, enforce policies in the building, serve on department and campus committees, and respond to any other community needs and concerns.

Judicial Board

The Judicial Board serves two primary purposes. First, the Board hears and adjudicates cases regarding alleged University policy violations that adversely affect residence hall communities. As a result, students found responsible for violations learn to be accountable for their actions and the rationale behind University policies. Second, the Judicial Board serves as an opportunity for Board members to develop as students and future professionals. The J-board members are trained and challenged to apply learned ethics, analyze complex issues and information, formulate solid questions, make sound and well-reasoned decisions and develop and utilize active listening and writing abilities.
