PACURH Description:
PACURH is part of the largest student run organization in the world. It is completely student run, in all of the
regional positions. It brings together over 40 schools from the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Australia.
PACURH promotes living on campus as an integral part of the college experience, and strives to provide resources
to help member schools create the ultimate residence hall environment and experience.
PACURH Conference:
A PACURH Conference is all about recognition, programming sessions, networking, cheering, and fun! Every
year, colleges and universities host amazing programs to improve the lives of the students living within the residence
halls. This conference provides the opportunity for member schools to share experiences and learn what other
campuses are doing.
Our theme for the PACURH 2012 conference is Once Upon A PACURH...A Leadership Tale.
