For privacy reasons, we will not give out a student’s information, however, we would be happy to contact your student and leave your student a message to contact you.

Your student should contact their Resident Assistant (RA). The RA, in conjunction with the Resident Director (RD)/Coordinator, will help your student to navigate the conflict and mediate if necessary. Our ultimate goal is to assist students in resolving their conflicts. If necessary, our staff can also assist with a room move based upon the vacancies available on campus.

Resident Assistants (RAs) are student staff specially trained to assist students who live in each residence hall. RAs plan programs and activities to help you get to know each other and build a sense of community and a positive feeling within your hall. RAs are on duty in the evenings and available to assist their community members should a concern or urgent situation arise as well as to address incidents involving University policies. RAs are a great resource if you have are question, concern, or are just looking to get more involved on campus.

Academic Peer Mentors (APMs) are student staff assigned to each first-year residence hall to provide academic support and guidance to the residential community. APMs provide programs on study skills, time management, and academic exploration to name a few and receive training through the Center for Student Success and Office of Residential Life.

Coordinators and Resident Directors are live-in professional staff members who directly supervise the Resident Assistant staff. They provide leadership and guidance for their residence hall community. Their offices are typically located within the residence halls.

Your student can find the list of what to bring on my°µÍø½ûÇø on the Residential Life page. Any specific questions can be directed to the Office of Residential Life.

Siblings are welcome to visit for the day; however, siblings under the age of 18 are not permitted to spend the night in the residence halls. More information regarding the Guest Policy can be found in the Student Handbook in the Office of Residential Life section.

Enhanced Learning Communities, commonly known as ELCs, are communities within our first-year residence areas. Students are grouped together based upon their intended major or common interest. Each ELC works directly with a faculty advisor and a RA who plan programs, field trips, and other activities based upon the theme of each ELC. For more information about ELCs, click here.
