RESIDENCE LIFE AND HOUSING
We have found, and no doubt you will, value from the unique
experiences that residence hall living provides. Our staff recognizes
that residence hall living is an integral part of the educational
process.
Whether you live in a traditional hall or suite, our commitment is to
provide you with a healthy, clean, and safe environment.
Our residence hall staff is here to provide information, counseling,
and programming for residents. By choosing to live in the residence
halls, you will be at the center of campus activity, close to classes and
dining facilities, and right in the midst of so many social activities!
Living on campus is convenient, affordable, and fun!
